Ingredients

• 4 medium Fresh peaches
• 100 grams Granulated sugar
• 3 large Eggs
• 240 ml Heavy cream
• 120 ml Whole milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 15 grams All-purpose flour
• 10 grams Unsalted butter
• 1 pinch Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a pie dish or a shallow baking dish with the unsalted butter.

Step 2

Peel the peaches, remove the pits, and slice them into thin wedges. Arrange the peach slices evenly in the prepared baking dish.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and granulated sugar until the mixture is pale and slightly thickened, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the heavy cream, whole milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the egg mixture. Whisk until thoroughly combined.

Step 5

Sift in the all-purpose flour and whisk gently until smooth. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Pour the custard mixture over the arranged peaches, ensuring all the wedges are partially submerged but still visible.

Step 7

Place the baking dish on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the custard is set and lightly golden on top. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.

Step 8

Remove the dish from the oven and allow the peach custard to cool for about 15 minutes. It can be served warm or chilled, depending on your preference.

Step 9

Optional: Dust with powdered sugar or garnish with a sprig of mint for presentation before serving.
