how to cook No Bake Peach Custard Tart?

STEP 1

To make a delicious peach tart, start by preparing a basic shortbread dough according to this recipe. Once the dough is chilled, use it to bake the crust in a 33cm x 9cm rectangular tart tin with a removable bottom following these instructions. Allow the crust to cool completely.

TIPS: Swap out the basic butter shortbread dough for a delicious alternative. Try using shortbread dough made with yogurt (no eggs needed!), or experiment with nutty or corn flour-based options.

STEP 2

In a medium bowl, combine sugar, vanilla sugar, and cornstarch. Mix them together well.

STEP 3

Then, add an egg yolk to the mixture and pour in 2 tablespoons (30g) of peach juice. Thoroughly mix all the ingredients together.

STEP 4

Next, take a saucepan and pour in the milk and the remaining peach juice. Bring the mixture to a boil. Take one-third of the hot milk and pour it into the peach-egg mixture. Stir quickly to combine.

TIPS: Beware of store-bought peach juice, as it may contain high levels of citric acid that can curdle your milk. To avoid this unfortunate mishap, dilute the juice with water until you’ll get the necessary amount. This way, you can enjoy your peachy concoctions without any curdling surprises.

STEP 5

Now, pour the peach-egg mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining milk. Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until it thickens. Once thickened, remove it from the heat.

STEP 6

Add the peach jelly to the custard and mix it thoroughly. To ensure a smooth texture, strain the mixture through a sieve.

TIPS: Instead of sticking to peach jelly, why not explore other delightful flavors like strawberry, cherry, raspberry, or even experiment with various other options?

STEP 7

Pour the resulting filling onto the crust in the tart tin.

STEP 8

Place the tart in the refrigerator for 30-40 minutes to allow it to harden.

STEP 9

While the tart is chilling, thinly slice the peaches.

TIPS: If you want to effortlessly remove the pit from peaches, here’s a simple method. Start by cutting the fruit in half lengthwise, right down to the pit. Then, rotate one half around its axis. Voila! The pit should come out smoothly, leaving you with perfectly pitted peaches.

TIPS: If you’re not a fan of the fuzzy skin on peaches, fear not! There’s an easy way to remove it. Simply plop those juicy fruits into a bowl of boiling water for 1-2 minutes, and voila! You can easily peel off the skin.

STEP 10

Once the tart has cooled, fan the sliced peaches onto the surface of the tart.

STEP 11

For an extra touch, decorate the tart with red currants and sprinkle some chopped nuts on top.

STEP 12

To serve, cut No Bake Peach Custard Tart into equal pieces and enjoy it with a cup of tea. Bon appétit!
