Ingredients

  • 5-6 peaches stoned and sliced (skins removed, optional)
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour plus additional for rolling the dough
  • teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons butter melted
  • 3 tablespoons orange marmalade
  • 1 - 9 " pie crust homemade or store-bought

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350-degrees.
  • Place the prepared peaches in a large bowl along with the brown sugar, 3 tablespoons flour, salt, vanilla extract, and melted butter. Toss gently to combine and set aside.
  • Prepare the pie dough by rolling a 9" crust into a 10" circle on a lightly floured surface.
  • Transfer the rolled dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet by loosely rolling the dough onto a rolling pin.
  • Brush off any excess flour from the pie dough, if needed.
  • Use a pastry brush to add a layer of orange marmalade onto the entire surface of the pie dough.
  • Spoon the peach filling high into the center of the dough, making sure to leave an approximate 1½"-2" border around the outside of the dough.
  • Gently pleat (or fold) the outside of the dough around the peach filling. [mv_img id="40206"]
  • In a small bowl, blend an egg along with a little water to make an egg wash and use a pastry brush to liberally eggwash the outside of the pie crust.
  • Sprinkle the entire peach crostata (especially the crust) with decorative sanding sugar (optional).
  • Bake in a preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until the pie crust is golden and the thickened peach juices are oozing.
  • Cool the crostata on the baking sheet set on a wire rack for 15 minutes and then carefully use a cake mover to move the crostata to a serving platter to cool completely before serving.
