How to Make Peach Tart With A Ginger Crust

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Make the crust: In a large bowl, combine flour, ginger, sugar, and salt. Cut in cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Stir in ice water, a tablespoon at a time, until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
  4. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  5. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to 1/4 inch thickness. Transfer to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
  6. Trim and crimp the edges. Prick the bottom with a fork.
  7. Blind bake the crust for 15 minutes by lining with parchment paper and pie weights or dried beans.
  8. Remove weights and parchment and bake for another 5 minutes until lightly golden.
  9. Make the filling: In a bowl, combine peaches, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and cinnamon.
  10. Pour the peach filling into the pre-baked crust.
  11. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
  12. Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
  13. Top with whipped cream and/or caramel sauce before serving.
