Ingredients
  

For the Crust
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour Essential for creating the flaky texture of the crust.
  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter (cold and cubed) Cold butter is key to achieving flakiness; vegan butter works for dairy-free.
  • 6 tablespoons Ice Water Helps bind the dough without overworking it; keep it icy!
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Enhances flavor to balance the sweetness of the fruits.
For the Filling
  • 2 large Peaches (sliced) Adds sweetness; nectarine can be a substitute.
  • 1 cup Fresh Blackberries Provides tart contrast; raspberries or blueberries work too.
  • 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar Sweetens the filling; adjust based on the peaches' ripeness.
  • 1 tablespoon Cornstarch Thickening agent to absorb juices; flour can replace.
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice Brightens flavors and balances sweetness; lime juice is an alternative.
For the Finishing Touch
  • 1 tablespoon Coarse Sugar (for sprinkling) Adds texture and sweetness; regular sugar works.
  • 1 beaten Egg (for egg wash) Gives the crust a beautiful shine; plant-based milk for vegan.

Equipment

  • mixing bowl
  • Rolling Pin
  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Cut in the cold, cubed unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs, about 5 minutes. Gradually add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. While the dough chills, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
  3. In a separate bowl, toss the sliced peaches and fresh blackberries with granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Mix until the fruit is evenly coated.
  4. After the dough has chilled, turn it out onto a floured surface. Roll the dough into a 12-inch circle, about 1/8-inch thick. Transfer the rolled dough onto your prepared baking sheet.
  5. Spoon the fruit filling into the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, pleating as you go.
  6. Brush the folded edges with beaten egg and sprinkle coarse sugar evenly over the crust. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  7. Once baked, cool for about 10 minutes on the baking sheet. Serve warm, ideally with vanilla ice cream.

Notes

Use very cold butter and ice water for a flaky crust. Adjust sugar based on the ripeness of fruit. Drain excess juice to prevent a soggy bottom.
