Ingredients
- 6 sheets phyllo pastry sheets
- 75 grams unsalted butter, melted
- 3 pieces ripe peaches, sliced
- 50 grams granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 240 milliliters heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (for topping)
- 2 tablespoons honey (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Lay out the phyllo sheets on a clean, flat surface, covering them with a damp towel to prevent drying.
Step 3
Take one phyllo sheet at a time, brush it lightly with melted butter, and layer another sheet on top. Repeat until all 6 sheets are stacked.
Step 4
Using a sharp knife, cut the stacked phyllo into 6 equal rectangular pieces.
Step 5
Place each phyllo rectangle on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
Step 6
While the phyllo is baking, prepare the peaches by tossing the sliced peaches in a bowl with granulated sugar and cinnamon. Set aside to macerate for 10 minutes.
Step 7
In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add vanilla extract and continue to whip until stiff peaks form. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Step 8
To assemble, place one piece of baked phyllo on a serving plate. Spoon a dollop of whipped cream onto the phyllo, followed by a layer of the macerated peaches. Repeat to create a second layer, finishing with a top layer of crispy phyllo.
Step 9
Dust the top with powdered sugar and drizzle with honey, if desired.
Step 10
Serve immediately and enjoy the delicate textures and flavors of this elegant dessert.
