• Step 1

  Make the dough: It’s easiest in a food processor, but by hand is fine as long as you knead swiftly with cold hands. Combine the flour, salt, and sugar. Add the butter and pulse to combine. Add drops of water until the dough just sticks together. Form a disk, wrap it in plastic, and leave it in the fridge to rest for at least 30 minutes.

• Step 2

  Make the filling: Halve and pit the peaches and slice them. In a large bowl, sprinkle the peaches with a pinch of salt and the sugar. Let them rest for a half hour or so.
  Preheat the oven to 200°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment.

• Step 3

  Take the dough out of the fridge and roll it out on a floured counter to a rough circle about 10 to 12 inches (25 to 30 cm) in diameter. Transfer the dough to the lined baking sheet.

• Step 4

  Pile the fruit in the centre of the dough, leaving about a 1 ½-inch (4-cm) margin all around the edges. Fold the edges in over the fruit. (This edge doesn’t have to be perfectly even. A little imperfection adds character. It’s called Home Made.)

• Step 5

  Bake for about 35 minutes, until golden brown.
  Eat the tart while still warm, sprinkled with some extra sugar and dolloped with whipped cream— whisked by hand!— or vanilla ice cream.
