Let’s get started on this delicious journey.
Ingredients
Scale
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup melted butter
1 cup vanilla custard (store-bought or homemade)
2 ripe peaches, sliced thinly
1/4 cup honey
1/2 cup whipped cream (optional for garnish)
Fresh mint leaves (optional for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mix well until the crumbs are fully coated and moist.
Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of mini tart pans to form the crust. Make sure it’s even and packed tightly for a sturdy base.
Refrigerate the tart crusts for 20 minutes to allow them to firm up.
Once the crusts are set, spoon the vanilla custard evenly into each tart shell, smoothing the tops with a spoon or spatula.
Arrange the peach slices in a circular pattern on top of the custard, starting from the outside and working your way in.
Drizzle each tart with honey for an extra touch of sweetness.
Garnish with whipped cream and fresh mint leaves if desired for added flair and freshness.
Chill the tarts for at least 30 minutes before serving to ensure the best texture and flavor.
Notes
Chill the crust: Letting the crusts chill for at least 20 minutes ensures they’ll hold their shape and provide a solid foundation for the custard and peaches.
Smooth custard: Make sure your custard is smooth and free of lumps. If you’re using store-bought custard, give it a quick whisk to fluff it up before spooning it into the tarts.
Peach ripeness: For the best flavor, choose ripe but firm peaches. Overripe peaches might become too soft and watery, while underripe peaches won’t have as much sweetness.
