Nectarine and Peach Summer Tart
- 8 ounces puff pastry (to fit a 10-1/2 inch tart pan)
- 1 pound 12 ounces nectarines and peaches
- 1/3 cup creme fraiche
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon hazelnut powder
- 1 tablespoon almond powder
- Preheat the oven to 400F.
- Fit the puff pastry into the tart pan and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Peel the peaches.
- Cut them and the nectarines into thin wedges.
- Reserve.
- In a small bowl whisk together the cream, sugar, egg and the nut powders.
- If you don't find hazelnut powder, simply substitute almond powder.
- When the pastry is chilled, arrange the fruits in it in concentric circles, mounding any extra slices in the center.
- Pour the cream evenly over the fruit, and bake the tart in the middle of the oven until the cream and fruit are golden on top, about 45 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and remove the tart from the pastry ring.
- When the tart is almost cool, slip it off the tart pan onto a serving platter, and serve.
