Peach Tarte

Peach, Almond and Maple Sirup is a perfect Trio. The trick of this Tarte is so easy you can hardly call it a trick: The Crust is pre-baked und the peaches only baked for a few minutes, so they stay fresh and will not be squishy. Add some extra Maple Sirup on top before serving.

½ tsp salt
120g soft butter
2 eggs

Whisk 30g of maplesyrup with the eggs and add it to the bowl, as well as the butter. Mix everything with a wooden spoon, until well combined.
Spill the dough in a buttered mold, (240mm or several smaller ones) and bake it for about 20 minutes at 345°F (reduce the time for smaller molds) until its golden brown.
Remove the core of the peaches, cut them in slices and arrange them on the chilled cake as close as possible. Brush them with maplesyrup and bake the cake again for 5 minutes at 375 °F.
Serve the tarte hot with the rest of the maplesyrup sprinkled on top.
