Ingredients
- Prepared pastry dough (uncooked), enough for a 9-inch pie pan
- 4 large peaches, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 whole egg, beaten
- Ice cream, for serving
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper. Set the uncooked pie dough onto the baking sheet.
In a bowl, gently mix peaches, sugar, and flour together. Pour fruit mixture into the center of the pastry round, leaving about 2 1/2 inches around the edge. Fold up the edge of the pastry dough over the filling to make a rim. Fan the edge as you go around folding the dough.
Brush pastry with the beaten egg and place the pat of butter on top of the fruit mixture. Bake for 30 to 45 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling. Cool the crostata on a rack and serve warm or at room temperature with your favorite ice cream.

I rolled my store bought pie crust out a little larger like other recipes called for. Added some blueberries to mine and didn't put in all the sugar but it was plenty sweet enough. I also had the problem with the juices spilliing out all over the pan so it didn't look as gorgeous as I would have hoped but still tasted delicious and that's what matters the most. Don't know that there is anything one can do about the juices spilling out but if someone has a suggestion other than putting in a regular pie plate, let me know. I like the free form look of the crust. On a whole easy and delicious dessert especially with the ice cream!

I added a handful of frozen blueberries since my 4 peaches were not that big. Also, added cinnamon and nutmeg and used a pie plate as suggested by others. Was 4 servings for us.

I threw this together last evening when I noticed I had 3 peaches and 2 plums sitting on the counter that needed to be utilized.
I made a quick pie crust in the food processor, cut up the peaches and plums and added some grated lemon zest. It was delicious! However, it served just 4 of us, not the 6 stated on the recipe.
