Instructions

1. Step 1: In a large bowl, combine 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour and 2 tbsp granulated sugar. Using a pastry cutter or fingers, cut in 6 tbsp cold diced unsalted butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
2. Step 2: Gradually add 3-4 tbsp cold water, stirring until dough just comes together. Form into a disk, wrap in plastic, and chill for 30 minutes.
3. Step 3: Preheat oven to 375°F. On a floured surface, roll dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
4. Step 4: In a small bowl, mix 1 cup ricotta cheese with 1 tsp lemon zest and 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon until smooth. Spread ricotta mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a 2-inch border.
5. Step 5: Arrange 3 medium sliced peaches over the ricotta layer. Fold dough edges over the peaches, pleating as needed.
6. Step 6: Brush 1 beaten egg over the dough edges. Drizzle 3 tbsp honey over the peaches.
7. Step 7: Bake for 35-40 minutes until crust is golden and peaches are tender. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.
