This beautiful summer peach custard tart is so simple and so utterly delicious, folks will think that you slaved over a hot oven to make it. The truth is it takes only a few minutes to prepare for the oven.

Fresh or frozen peaches both work well in this simple recipe idea.

With fresh Ontario peaches in the stores at the moment, I couldn’t resist using my favourite summer fruit in this incredible tart. We served it at dinner last week and then everyone in the house fought over the leftovers.

I practically never have seconds of dessert but went looking for thirds of this perfect summer fruit dessert.  It was that good.

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes

Summer Peach Custard Tart - this might just be the perfect summer barbecue dessert. So easy to make but your guests will think you slaved over it.

Ingredients

  • 1 ¾ cups graham crumbs
  • ⅓ cup butter
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 4 peaches

Instructions

To prepare the crust

  1. Mix together the graham crumbs, melted butter and sugar well and press into the bottom and sides of an 11 inch fluted tart pan with a removable bottom. Bake for 7 minutes at 350 degrees F.

To prepare the filling

  1. Whisk together the sour cream, sugar, vanilla extract and egg until the sugar is dissolved. Pour this into the baked shell.
  2. Thickly slice the peaches into wedges.
  3. You want to slice the peaches thick so that they stick out of the cream filling. Add only enough of the slices to bring the custard to the top of the pan.
  4. Bake for 25-30 minutes at 325 degrees F, until the center is set and jiggly. Cool completely in the fridge before cutting and serving.

Made this for yesterday for brunch. Needed special recipes because it was the the first family gathering after Covid started. It was absolutely awesome. Great crust. Used peaches with their skin on. Saves a lot of drippy mess and they taste great done that way. Thanks !

Looks like my kind of baking. But could I use any other fruit besides peach’s?

This looks great! Can I use frozen peaches?

I would if that is what I had. Pat them dry on paper towels would be my suggestion after they have thawed completely.
