Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat grill to medium-high heat, about 375°F. Brush 3 halved and pitted peaches with 1 tablespoon lemon juice to prevent browning.
- Step 2: In a food processor, pulse 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup almond flour, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, and 6 tablespoons cold diced unsalted butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Step 3: Add 1 egg yolk and pulse until dough just comes together. Form dough into a disc, wrap in plastic, and chill for 30 minutes.
- Step 4: Roll out chilled dough on a floured surface to a 10-inch circle and transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Step 5: Grill peach halves flesh side down for 3-4 minutes until grill marks appear and peaches soften slightly.
- Step 6: Arrange grilled peach halves on the tart dough, spacing evenly, and sprinkle 1/4 cup sliced almonds on top.
- Step 7: Bake tart in a preheated 375°F oven for 25-30 minutes until crust is golden and almonds toasted.
- Step 8: Remove tart and immediately drizzle 3 tablespoons honey over the warm peaches and crust before serving.
