Super Quick Peach Tarts

So light and easy to make. Keep puff pastry on hand at all times to use, not only in this fast dessert recipe, but dozens of other treats.

  • 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
  • 1/2 cup peach jam
  • 3-4 peaches, peeled, stones removed and sliced 1/3" thick
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Roll pastry onto a well floured surface and cut into twelve 3" squares. 
Prick the pastry with a fork and coat each with a spoonful of peach jam. 
Fan the peach slices over the jam, arranged nicely. 

In small bowl, combine brown sugar and cinnamon and mix well. Sprinkle over peach slices.

Put the tarts on an ungreased cookie sheet.

Bake at 400 degrees for 7-12 minutes, until the peaches are tender and the pastry is golden brown. Try serving these hot, with vanilla ice cream! Serves 6-8
