Equipment

  • Mixing spoon

  • Mixing bowl

  • Knife

  • Baking tray

  • Scales

  • Cling film

  • Rolling pin

Ingredients

  • For the Base:

  • 150g Gem Plain Flour, chilled in the freezer for 30 minutes

  • ½ tsp salt

  • 120g cold butter, cubed

  • 4 tbsp sour cream

  • 2 tsp fresh lemon juice

  • 60ml ice water

  • For the Filling:

  • 2 large peaches, pitted and thinly sliced

  • 50g blueberries

  • 50g Gem demerara sugar, plus extra for sprinkling

  • 1 egg, beaten with 1 tbsp milk

  • To Serve:

  • Vanilla ice cream, whipped cream or custard

Instructions

1
Combine the salt and flour in a large mixing bowl. Rub in the butter until the mixture is crumbly.
2
In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, lemon juice and water. Stir this into the flour mixture until it comes together as a dough — be sure not to over-mix.
3
Turn the dough out onto a work surface and shape into a disc. Wrap in cling film and refrigerate for one hour.
4
Preheat the oven to 200˚C/180˚C fan/gas mark 6 and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
5
In a bowl, toss the peaches, blueberries and brown sugar until combined.
6
Roll the dough out on a floured work surface until it is about 30cm round. Transfer the pastry to the baking tray.
7
Arrange the peaches over the dough, leaving a 5cm border. Fold the border over the filling, pleating the edge to make it fit and leaving the centre open.
8
Brush the crust with the beaten egg and sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 40-45 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the mixture is bubbling.

Notes

Serve with whipped cream, vanilla ice cream or custard.
