Five ingredients + 30 minutes = peach tart perfection.

Now that is my kind of math. Simple. Straightforward. No calculators required. And while more elaborate fruit-filled desserts (shout-out to the mango tart fans out there) certainly have their place on my list of top-rated sweets, there’s just something about a no-frills tart that attracts the eye and the taste buds. Just take a gander at the below …

Slice after slice, row after row. Fresh, juicy peaches do all of the talking without a dollop of pastry cream or whipped cream in sight. Their canvas? A sheet of buttery puff pastry, which perks up around the edges to seal in the natural sweetness of this dessert. It’s unapologetically simple. It’s pure flavor perfection. And it’s completely customizable depending on which fruit is at its peak.

So preheat your oven, make the most of summer’s sweetest stone fruit and then find inspiration for more simple sweets with quick and easy recipes for cheesecake, pie and cookies.
