TWD: Crunchy Custardy Peach Tart

For this week's TWD assignment Rachel of Sweet Tarte chose the Crunchy & Custardy Peach Tart on pages 346-347 of Baking from My Home to Yours.



I made this for a get together with my family on Sunday and it was great!  I honestly am not normally a huge peach fan.  I HATE artificial peach flavoring but do love fresh peaches and knew that my family does as well.  My relatives who were over do not like or eat nuts so I left the almonds out...so this didn't really have the "crunchy" factor, but it was still great!  I also made it in a rectangular pan so I didn't have the same "design" that you would get in a round tart. 


Thanks for the pick Rachel, and be sure to check her blog for the recipe, and the TWD leave your link post to see who baked along this week.

  1. it's funny how so many people don't like nuts. i usually go the opposite way and add nuts to recipes that didn't call for them. looks yummy, btw.

  8. Love the square piece of tart - it looks fantastic even without the nuts! I bake a lot for my inlaws, who don't eat nuts, but this time I just waited for them to go home and made it with pecans. Yum!

  10. I love the rectangular pan. If I had made a big one that would have been perfect. Cut nice slices.

    Looks good even without the nuts.

  14. When you leave the nuts out, it reminds me so much of a peach pie my mom bakes. I do love peaches!
