- 1/4 cup water
- 2 tablespoons plus 6 teaspoons honey
- 2 tablespoons plus 6 teaspoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 peaches, peeled, halved, pitted
- 1 sheet frozen puff pastry (half of 17 1/4-ounce package), thawed
- 1 egg, beaten to blend
- 3/4 chilled whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Combine water, 2 tablespoons honey, 2 tablespoons sugar and vanilla in medium skillet. Stir over medium-low heat until sugar dissolves. Add peach halves; cover and simmer 3 minutes. Turn peaches over; cover and simmer until just tender, about 3 minutes longer. Using slotted spoon, transfer to plate. Cool. Simmer syrup until reduced to 3 tablespoons, about 2 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line large baking sheet with foil. Roll out pastry on floured surface to 17×11-inch rectangle, and 1/8-inch thick. Cut into six 4 1/2×5 1/2-inch rectangles. Cut off 1/2-inch-wide strip from each side of 1 rectangle. Brush strips with beaten egg. Place 2 long strips, egg side down, atop long edges of rectangle. Place short strips, egg side down, atop short edges, trimming to fit. Repeat with remaining rectangles.
- Place pastries on baking sheet. Spread 1 teaspoon honey over bottom of each. Slice each peach half thinly; fan slightly. Place 1 half in center of each pastry. Top each with 1 teaspoon sugar.
- Bake tartlets until crust is golden, about 25 minutes. Immediately transfer to rack; cool. Rewarm syrup until liquefied. Brush peaches with syrup.
- Beat cream, honey and vanilla in bowl to soft peaks. Serve tartlets with honey cream.
