Why we love this recipe

I make this blueberry peach tart recipe on repeat during the summer, because it is so easy, and because it uses two of my favorite fruits. Peaches and blueberries are the perfect combo.

The blueberries just need a quick rinse, and while the peaches do need to be peeled, I have a trick for peeling peaches (check the FAQ section below) that will make it easy as pie. (Couldn’t help that one!)

After the peeling is over, all you need to do is mix up those peaches and blueberries with a few other ingredients, pile them onto a pie crust (yep, the kind you buy in the store), fancy up the sides of the crust a little and pop the whole thing in the oven.

40 minutes later you have a lovely rustic version of a blueberry peach pie, waiting to be served up with some ice cream, some whipped cream, or all by its delicious self.

Ingredient notes and substitutions

  • Peaches: Look for peaches that are slightly soft when you squeeze them. You can use anything from regular peaches to white peaches, and in a pinch you can also use frozen peaches – defrost them in a strainer.
  • Blueberries: Give them a good rinse right before you use them and pat them dry.
  • Peach Preserves: You can use preserves, jam or jelly…this is going to give your tart just a little extra flavor boost.
  • Pie Crust: I find that the pre-made pie crusts in the supermarket are just fine for this recipe, but if you have a beloved homemade recipe that you want to use, go for it!

STEP 6: Now fold the edges up the pie crust up and over the side of the fruit.  I like to do it in sections so it forms a little pleat around the fruit.

STEP 7: Mix up the egg and brush it onto the pie crust, then sprinkle the crust with a tablespoon or so of sugar. (If you happen to have coarse sparkling sugar, now is the time to use it!)

Recipe FAQs

What is the best way to peel peaches?

Peaches are the easiest fruit to peel! Make a slight cut all around the peach with a paring knife, and then pop them into boiling water for about a minute. Scoop them out with a slotted spoon and when they are cool enough to handle, just slide the skin right off. It’s magical!

Can I make my own pie crust if I want to?

Yes you can! Here’s a great pie crust recipe from my friend Elise.

This doesn’t need to go in a pie plate to bake?

Nope! The folded over crust around the edges is going to keep everything nice and tidy. We do recommend baking it on a rimmed baking pan just to contain any juice drips.

How do I get the baked tart off of the pan?

I run a big spatula under the tart to loosen it, and then lift the silicone mat (or parchment) off the baking tray and gently slide it onto a serving dish.

    1. Yes! It’s always best to freeze pies before baking for the best flavor. While you can bake it frozen (add another 10-15 minutes to the cooking time) you’ll get a better flavor if you thaw it first. Hope this helps!

  1. I am going to make this on the weekend for my family. One question I have , can frozen peaches be used as well as the frozen blueberries? Cannot wait to try this
    Thank You

    1. Hi Suzanne! Yes, you can definitely use frozen peaches – just thaw them out first and let them drain while they are thawing so you don’t get too much extra liquid. Happy baking! :)

        1. Hi Pat! Yes you can – it will be a lighter, fluffier crust so it may not hold together as well when you are slicing the tart, but it will still be delicious!

  2. Hi Kate! I’m not a baker, so this looks perfectly easy for me, and I love the idea below about the mascarpone. :-) My question is about the crust–no need to pre-bake to keep the bottom crust, um, crusty? Or is that not a thing? Thanks!

    1. Hi Fran!! For some pie recipes it is definitely a thing, but not for this one – that’s one of the things I love love love about this recipe. No extra oven time! Happy baking! :)

  3. This looks divine! My blueberry bushes are going strong this year so this will be another good use for some home-grown berries. How about a good schmear of some cream cheese or mascarpone whipped with a bit of lemon zest to go on the crust before all that luscious fruit? Would be a nice, creamy, dreamy surprise! Happy Friday, Kate!

    1. Ooooh, blueberry bushes!! Can I move in next door? I will bring both cream cheese AND mascarpone since those are both awesome ideas! :)

  4. I’ll have to make this for my weekend visitor. I’m still trying to use up last summer’s blueberries from the freezer. I usually use them frozen when I bake. Will that work here?

    1. Hi Martha! I think that should work just fine – if you try it that way, will you come back and let us know how it turned out? Happy baking! :)
