Stephannie's Blog: How to: Peach Tarte

Hello everyone and happy Friday! It is currently 23 degrees where I am right now, which is awesome given that it was 12 degrees for the last couple of days and it's summer here.
I had mentioned in my last couple posts that I had a whole bunch of new content I wanted to share but I had gotten really sick and things didn't go according to plan. Non the less I have a few post heading your way these next few weeks so stay tuned!
As you guys know by now if you have followed my blog before, I love to be in the kitchen. I love to bake, cook, eat you name it. It's always nice to get together with family and friends, whether it's at someone home or out somewhere and no matter what- there's always food! I've always been the type of person that if I'm going to someone house I like to bring something- preferably something homemade. Plus it's nice to feel like Martha Stewart when everyone compliments how delicious what you made was.
My boyfriend's mom shared this recipe with me around Christmas last year and I have made it ever since. I absolutely love it and I think you guys will too. This is a super easy recipe and it consists of just a few ingredients. Now, I'm all about keeping it simple so don't worry you don't need a fancy kitchen appliance to whip this up.

Ingredients:

2 cups of flour

1 cup of sugar

4 tbsp of butter

1/2 cup of milk

1 egg
2 tbsp of baking powder

To decorate:

1 can of cream

1 cup of peaches cut into small pieces

First of all, your going to sift your flour. Now some of you might be thinking- "what the heck? what's sifting your flour mean?" and why? Sifting flour is a way to lighten your flour with a mesh sieve to get rid of clumps that was caused when it was packaged. It also makes it way easier for you to mix your ingredients together.

Add your sugar and baking powder. Once all that is incorporated together your going to add your egg, and butter. Once that is done add your milk. I prefer to add the milk last as I feel since your mixture is already semi wet it's easier to incorporate.

Butter your pan up with butter all around. This will help prevent it from sticking to the pan. Leave in the oven for 20-25 minutes at 360 degree. Once cooked, let it completely cool down.
