Juicy cinnamon peaches, toasted almonds and a generous amount of vanilla glaze over a flaky crust… These peach tartlets are a real treat! We used a pre-made puff pastry so it doesn’t get any easier!
These peach pastries taste amazing and sure look like you spent some time making them. Really they come together so quickly (that can be our little secret ;)). The ingredients are simple and you can use drained canned peaches when not in season. Pin and keep this recipe in mind the next time you need a quick peach dessert.
Ingredients for Peach Tartlets:
1 sheet (1/2 lb puff pastry) – I used Pepperidge Farm brand
1 egg, beaten well with a fork
2 large (1/2 lb) fresh peaches (or use canned/drained peaches)
2 Tbsp granulated sugar
1 Tbsp all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup sliced almonds

Ingredients for Vanilla Glaze:
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 Tbsp milk (or add to achieve desired consistency)
How to Make Peach Tartlets:
1. Preheat oven to 400˚F. Thaw puff pastry 20 minutes at room temperature, or until you can unfold the pastry. Cut pastry into 9 equal sized squares and place on parchment lined baking sheet, spacing them 1-inch apart.
2. Beat 1 egg in a small bowl and set aside.
3. Slice peaches into 1/3″ thick slices and place them in a medium mixing bowl. Sprinkle with 2 Tbsp sugar, 1 Tbsp flour, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp vanilla and gently fold together with a spatula.
4. Layer 3 to 4 peach slices over the center of each pastry square, being careful not to get peach juice on the surrounding pastry. Brush pastry edges generously with beaten egg. Sprinkle with sliced almonds.
5. Bake on the center oven rack at 400˚F for 17-19 minutes or until puffed and golden at the edges, turning the sheet halfway through baking. Tip: Do not over-bake. It browns very quickly towards the end. Remove peach pastry from oven and let cool on the pan for 10 minutes.
6. While pastry cools, make your vanilla glaze: in a measuring cup with pouring lip, stir together 1/2 cup powdered sugar, 1/2 tsp vanilla and 1 Tbsp milk. Add more milk if needed to reach desired consistency then drizzle every last drop over your warm pastries :).

I find it’s so handy to have a package of puff pastry in the freezer for quick desserts like these peach tartlets, or some of our favorites like these:
Q: What is your favorite recipe to make with puff pastry?
This recipe looks delicious! Can I use frozen sliced peaches? If so, do you think I should thaw them before I put them on the pastry or bake them when they’re frozen?
Hi Nancy, I haven’t tested that. It may work, but I would thaw and drain them well, and use paper towel to dry them from excess moisture.
Do you think next day this gonna be soggy about part of Pie ?
These are best enjoyed the day they are made. The puff pastry base can start to soften and get a bit soggy by the next day due to the moisture from the peaches.
Should the peaches for the peach puff pastry tarletts be peeled before slicing?
I left them un-peeled but you can peel if you prefer.
