Herbes de Provence Peach Balsamic Tart at The Little Shop of Olive Oils

This is the kind of dessert that feels simple, but looks like you spent a lot more time on it than you actually did.

This Herbes de Provence Peach Balsamic Tart is soft, lightly sweet, and filled with fresh peach flavor, with just a hint of something extra that makes it stand out.

The peaches are the star here—thinly sliced and layered right on top so they bake into the tart, becoming soft and slightly caramelized. And then there’s that subtle herbal note from the Herbes de Provence Olive Oil, which gives the whole tart a gentle savory edge that works beautifully with the sweetness of the fruit.

A splash of Peach Balsamic Vinegar brings everything together. It adds a soft brightness and depth that makes this feel just a little more special than a traditional fruit tart.

I love recipes like this because they’re easy to pull together, but they feel thoughtful and a little unexpected. The batter is simple, the presentation is beautiful, and it’s just as nice served warm as it is at room temperature.

If you want to take it one step further, a quick peach balsamic glaze brushed over the top gives it that lovely glossy finish and just a bit more flavor.

This is perfect for brunch, dessert, or anytime you have ripe peaches on hand and want to make something that feels fresh and a little different.

Simple, beautiful, and full of flavor.

Prep Time

15 minutes

Ingredients

For the Tart

3–4 ripe peaches, thinly sliced
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1/4 cup Herbes de Provence Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Peach Balsamic Vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
Powdered sugar, for dusting

Optional Glaze

2 tablespoons Peach Balsamic Vinegar
1 tablespoon Franklin Raw Honey or apricot preserves

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9-inch tart pan or pie dish with olive oil.
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, Herbes de Provence Olive Oil, Peach Balsamic, vanilla, and almond extract (if using).
Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. The batter will be thick.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
Arrange the peach slices on top in a circular pattern.
Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Optional Glaze

While the tart is still warm, gently heat the Peach Balsamic and honey (or preserves) until smooth.
Brush lightly over the peaches for a glossy finish.
