Peach Puff Pastry Bake is a delightful dessert made with canned peaches, warm spices, and a flaky, golden puff pastry crust. It’s as easy to put together as it is delicious!
Ingredients
- 2 cans (15 ounces each) canned sliced peaches, drained
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed according to package directions
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
-
-
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
-
In a 10-inch oven-safe skillet, combine peaches, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cornstarch. Set aside while you prepare the puff pastry.
-
Lay the puff pastry sheet onto a clean work surface.
-
-
In a small bowl, mix together the egg and water. Brush the egg wash over the pastry*. Cut the sheet into 16 equal-sized squares.
-
Arrange the puff pastry squares over the peaches in a circular, overlapping pattern, starting at the largest part of the skillet and working your way toward the center. All of the peaches should be as covered as possible.
-
Bake for 27-30 minutes, or until the pastry has puffed up and browned and the peach filling is bubbly.
-
Let cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Notes
*It is important to brush the egg wash over the puff pasty and THEN cut it into individual squares. If the egg wash gets onto the sides of the squares, it may not puff up as beautifully.
