Ingredients:

For the mass:

  • 200g of flour
  • 1 + ½ tablespoons sugar
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • 180 g of very cold butter
  • 2 tablespoons of cold water

For the filling:

  • 4 large or 6 small peaches
  • 1 + ½ tablespoons sugar
  • 1 + ½ tablespoons cornstarch or flour
  • 1 splash of lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • a handful of sliced ​​almonds
  • sugar for sprinkling

Elaboration:

  • Pour the flour, sugar and salt into the food processor or food processor and pulse a couple of times.
  • Add the cold butter cut into cubes and pulse 4 times.
  • Add the water and pulse again a couple of times.
  • Squeezing with your fingers, make 1 disc, wrap it in film and let it rest in the fridge for half an hour.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the filling, wash, peel and cut the peaches into slices and put them in a bowl with a dash of lemon juice, sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon and mix everything carefully with a spoon.
  • Remove the dough from the fridge and roll it out on a sheet of parchment paper, giving it a more or less round shape, as in the photos.
  • To start placing the fruit, we press lightly with a plate to have a guide and place the fruit more or less in order.
  • We take the leftover dough around it to the centre, it doesn’t have to be perfect or the same, that’s the funny thing about these rustic-looking cakes.
  • Sprinkle the edges with sugar and put some sliced ​​almonds on top.
  • Bake 180ºC heat up and down for 60 minutes. If after 45 minutes, you see that the almonds or the dough are too toasty, put a little aluminium foil on top and continue baking for another 15 minutes.
  • Take it out of the oven, let it rest slightly and you can now serve, just as it is warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or cold.
