This Peach Blackberry Tart is pretty enough to seem “fancy” and impressive, but it couldn’t be easier to make! A great easy dessert idea for your fresh summer peaches and blackberries.
I think this is the first year ever that I almost bought more peaches then we could eat! We went to Eckerts, our favorite Orchard and stocked up, just liked we do every year. Last year I made this delicious Peach Crumb Cake, and Baked Peaches (after I canned most of them, of course).
This year I shared these fantastic Peach Scones, and now I’m so happy to share this beautiful, EASY Peach Blackberry Tart! Some people call this a “gallete”, but I feel like that word can seem intimidating to the average baker, to I decided to just call it a tart. It’s basically a simplified version of a pie.
How to make a peach blackberry tart (gallete):
First, you roll out a pie crust, just like you would if you were making a pie. Then you layer the center with fresh peaches that have been tossed in a simple sauce. Next you gently fold the outer edge of the crust up and over the fruit, overlapping it to form a circle.
How easy is that?!
I like to brush the crust lightly with an egg wash and add a sprinkle of sugar so that it looks pretty. After the tart bakes, allow it to cool for a few minutes before cutting it into slices. Serve it warm with vanilla ice cream. The perfect delicious summer dessert!

Recipe
Peach Blackberry Tart
Ingredients
- Dough for one 9’’ pie crust
- 5 medium size fresh peaches peeled, pitted and sliced
- 1 cup fresh blackberries
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
Sauce:
- reserved peach juice about ⅓ cup
- 1 Tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 Tablespoons water
Topping:
- egg wash: 1 egg white + 1 Tbsp water
- Sugar- for sprinkling
Instructions
- Add sliced peaches to a mixing bowl. Add sugar and lemon juice and stir a couple of times. Rest for 3 minutes. Stir again. Rest for another 3 minutes. The sugar will help bring out the juice from the peaches, so continue to stir and rest, as needed, until you have about ⅓ cup peach juice.
- Strain peach juice into a small saucepan. Set peaches aside.
- Mix cornstarch and water together until smooth. Add to the saucepan with the peach juice. Stir well.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring, until thickened.
- Lightly dust a piece of parchment or wax paper with flour. Roll out pie crust into a large circle, 11-12’’ in diameter.
- Add the sauce from saucepan (it should be pretty thick) back to the bowl with the peaches and toss to coat.
- Use a slotted spoon to layer the peaches into the center of the rolled out pie crust, leaving any excess sauce in the bowl. Top with blackberries.
- Gently fold the outer edge of the crust up and over the fruit, overlapping as needed to form a circle.
- Brush a light egg wash on the edges of the crust. Sprinkle lightly with sugar.
- Bake at 425 degrees F for 35-40 min. or until the crust is golden brown. Depending on how juicy your peaches are, you may want to check the tart while baking. If you see pools of juice threatening to leak out of the crust you can use a paper towel to blot the juice out.
- Cool for a few minutes before cutting into slices. Serve warm, with vanilla ice cream, if desired.

Question: I froze a bunch of peaches, could I use them once thawed?
How many cups for the amount?
Also, I think I’d like to try with red raspberries for the color? Would that change the recipe in any way?
I want to make this, but want to clarify – it would be helpful to know about how many cups of peaches? (I was only able to find small peaches that were ripe, so knowing how many cups makes me feel more confident). Also with filling the pie crust rolled out on parchment or wax paper – is the tart being transferred to a cookie sheet for baking, or a pie pan?
Thanks!
I just took this out of the oven, and you do need to put it on a baking sheet, not a pie pan. That important info is left out!
I think I had about 2 cups of peaches, peeled 7 small/med. ish ones, and used raspberries instead of blackberries. I also put the temp at 375 and cooked a bit longer so the middle wouldn’t be undercooked. I did dab the excess juice with paper towel- good tip. Good luck!
Hi! So excited to try this recipe 🙂 Curious – would canned peaches be ok to use?
Sure, that would be fine, just drain them really well.
Easy and amazing – I love recipes that make me look like a talented baker and so easy I look like a natural gourmet! But truth will out and I send my friends to your blog for the recipe!

Yes, you could prep the peaches a few hours ahead.
