Rustic Peach Crostata
Ingredients
1 pie crust round (I used pre made refrigerated dough)
3 ripe peaches, sliced
3 Tbsp sugar
2 Tbsp steel cut oats
1 Tbsp butter, small dice
cinnamon
Preparation
1
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
2
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll out the pie crust. Sprinkle lightly with cinnamon.
3
In a small bowl toss together the sliced peaches and the sugar.
4
Place the peaches in a pile in the center of the pie round. Fold the sides up slightly, pinching the dough together and leaving the center exposed.
5
Top the center where the peaches are exposed with the oats and diced butter. Sprinkle the entire thing with some more cinnamon.
6
Pop in the oven for approx 40-45 minutes until the crust is golden. Serve with a lovely side of whipped cream or ice cream! Enjoy!!

About
The other night I found a roll of pie dough in my freezer and thought lets make something with those perfectly ripe Jersey peaches! A rustic crostata is such. A simple but delicious and beautiful dessert!!!! A crostata is basically a simplified pie! While apple pie is the American pie.. my favorite is peach! The summery sweetness is something I look forward to every year, especially being from Jersey and getting to get farm fresh fruit! There is nothing better tasting then the fruit you pick yourself!
