RECIPE:

Ingredients

Filling
3 peaches peeled and sliced
Juice of one lemon
Zest of one lemon
1 cup brown sugar
1 dram sour mash whiskey about 45 ml
2-3 drops almond extract

Crust
1 sheet of puff pastry
Egg wash to brush the crust
1 tbsp white sugar to brush the crust

Instructions

Peel and slice your peaches, and add it to a mixing bowl. Add the brown sugar, lemon juice and zest, whiskey, and almond extract, and mix. Let it sit for 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 400F (200C).

Take a round cake pan (9”) and place it over a piece of puff pastry that you have flattened out with a rolling pin. Cut around it with a knife to make a round crust. Simple.

Add the round crust to a baking sheet.

Add the filling to the center of the round crust, leaving about an inch of space around the outside.

Fold the extra crust over the filling, pleating it by folding each bit over the last one. Brush it with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar and bake for 15-17 minutes.
