The other night I found a roll of pie dough in my freezer and thought lets make something with those perfectly ripe Jersey peaches! A Rustic Peach Crostata is such. A simple but delicious and beautiful dessert!!!!
A crostata is basically a simplified pie! While apple pie is the classic American pie.. my favorite is peach! The summery sweetness is something I look forward to every year, especially being from Jersey and getting to get farm fresh fruit! There is nothing better tasting then the fruit you pick yourself! Some other great fruit combos to try with this: peach & raspberry, mixed berry {strawberry, blackberry, raspberry}, peach & blueberry and a cherry and nectarine.
Another thing I just love about desserts like this… so little effort but it looks and tastes so good! Even if you are invited to a last minute get together you can easily throw a crostata together.
