EASY CREAMY FRESH PEACH TARTLET
Summer, summer fruit it wouldn’t be summer without ’em. (I’m pretty sure I’ve used this line in another post, but I just can’t help think of the little commercial jingle when summer fruits are so delicious right now! Yep… I’m showing my age here.)
Welcome to the Pinterest Challenge, hosted by my dear friend Cindy from County Road 407!
Each month, Cindy gets together a bunch-o’-bloggers and challenges them to recreate a photo she has found on Pinterest, but adding our own twist!
It’s always SUPER fun, and I’m so glad to be participating again this month after taking several months off for my move and settling in!

How to Make Easy Creamy Fresh Peach Tartlets
This recipe is adapted from an original recipe I found on the Betty Crocker site.
What makes this recipe so easy is the mini tart shell is made with Bisquick!
Yep… my old stand-by for our family’s favorite strawberry shortcake, and now for a fresh peach tartlet!
But, again, this is adapted… I put my own twist on the recipe to create a taste that my family would enjoy… oh, and me, too! 😉
So, let’s get started! (BTW, the complete recipe is at the end of this post, and it’s printable, too!)
Ingredients and Tools for Fresh Peach Mini Tarts
To whip up these sweet little peach mini tarts, you will only need a few ingredients:
- Peaches (one ripe and one firm)
- Sugar
- Cream Cheese
- Sour Cream
- Butter (or margarine)
- and, Original Bisquick Mix
You may need a few more tools than ingredients:
- 2-3 mixing bowls
- Scraping spatulas
- Hand mixer
- 4″ tart pans
- Cookie sheet
- Cooling rack
- Metal strainer
How to Make Easy Peach Mini Tarts
Now for the easy-peasy steps to make these delicious summer mini desserts.
- Peel a ripe soft peach and blend it with a hand mixer or blender. Set aside. (Photo 1.)
- Combine ingredients for crust with a pastry cutter and then knead into a ball. (Photo 2.)
- Separate dough ball into 6 parts.(Photo 3.) (Do as I say, not as I do here… I realized what I had done when I started trying to spread my dough into the pan and it wouldn’t quite ‘reach’.)
- Spread the dough evenly in 6 mini tart pans (you can use disposable pans, too!)
- Place tart pans on a cookie sheet and bake at 375 degrees for 9-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Leave crust inside pans and place on a cooling rack. Remove crusts from pans after 20-30 minutes. (Photo 4)
- Strain pureed peach with metal strainer and place puree in another bowl. Add remaining ingredients for filling and blend with hand mixer until (relatively) smooth. (Photo 5 and 6).
- Spoon filling into mini tart shells and spread evenly.
- Slice a firm peach and add slices to the top of the filling.
Enjoy immediately, or refrigerate until chilled.
Enjoy Easy Creamy Fresh Peach Tartlets
These tartlets are ready to eat as soon as you like… with a cup of coffee, hot tea, or even a tall glass of your favorite iced drink. (I always prefer unsweetened tea, and it’s especially refreshing with this sweet dessert!)
It was fun doing my first recipe post in my new-to-me-kitchen.
Are you ready to enjoy a yummy fresh peach tartlet?
Well, I would offer to have you come over and enjoy these with me, but they are already gone!
I guess you will need to heat up your oven for a few minutes to bless your family… and yourself!
But before you do, hop on over to my sweet friend Rachel’s blog, The Ponds Farmhouse. She has a ‘dreamy’ peach parfait recipe that you won’t want to miss. And be sure to peruse her home, as well. It’s just lovely!

Easy Creamy Fresh Peach Tartlet
This easy and creamy fresh peach tartlet recipe is sure to be a favorite summer dessert for your family! Made with fresh peach puree and Bisquick, it doesn't get much easier than this recipe!
Ingredients
- 1 cup Original Bisquick Mix
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon butter or margarine, softened
- 3 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup pureed peach (approximately 1/2 of a large, peeled peach), drained
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 6 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 fresh peach, sliced
- 1/3 cup apricot jelly, melted (optional)
TOOLS NEEDED
- 2-3 mixing bowls
- Pastry cutter (optional)
- Hand Mixer
- Spatula
- Strainer
- 4-inch tartlet pans (disposable work great)
- Cookie Sheet
- Cooling Rack
Instructions
- Heat oven to 375 degrees.
- Let peaches set on the counter to get to room temperature. Take 1/2 of a large peach, cut off the skin and mix it with the hand mixer until pureed. (You can use a blender for this, as well.) Let stand.
- Mix Bisquick, 3 tablespoons of sugar, 1 tablespoon butter, and 3 ounces of softened cream cheese in a small bowl until dough forms a ball. (Use a pastry cutter to incorporate the ingredients, and then knead into a ball.)
- Divide dough into 6 separate balls. Press each ball into the bottom and 3/4 inch up the side of each tartlet pan. (You can also use 10-ounce custard cups.) Place the tartlet pans on a cookie sheet.
- Bake the tartlet crusts 9-12 minutes (for me, 9 minutes was perfect), or until light brown. Cool IN THE PANS on a cooling rack for about 20-30 minutes. Remove the shells for the pans.
- Drain the pureed peach using a strainer and place strained puree in a clean mixing bowl. Add remaining cream cheese, sour cream, and sugar and blend until smooth (you may have a little bit of texture, but that's okay. 😉 .
- Spoon mixture into tartlet shells and spread evenly. Top with sliced peaches.
- Brush melted apricot jelly onto fruit slices in order to keep the fruit looking fresh and staying moist.
Notes
*The thinner you spread your dough into the pans, the better! Just be sure you don't have any holes.
**After mixing the cream filling, be sure to taste it. You may want to add a dash more sugar.

Oh this sounds so yummy. I’ll take one for breakfast please! LOL
Yes… this would be breakfast for me, too!
This is so fancy looking yet simple! I can’t wait to try this for next Sunday’s family dinner. Off to buy some mini tartlet pans!
Oh… so fun! Let me know how they go over! 😉
HI Julie, What a beautiful peach dessert! Yum!
laura
Thank you so much, Laura!
Well now I think I need some mini tart pans. Anything small like this usually kept me scrolling and not willing to try it. Not sure why. I think it was reading the cold butter/flour with a pastry cutter step. I has always been intimidating to me. Seeing this was softened margarine is a game changer though. Dang it, I want one right now! BTW, what did you do with the extra dough balls? So glad you were able to FINALLY join in this month. 😉 Thanks Julie!
Hehe… only YOU would ask about the extra dough balls… I combined them with the others to make them the correct size! LOL!
YUM! These look amazing, Julie! Thanks so much for sharing them! It’s peach time in Lancaster County.
OH… I bet you have some AMAZING summer fruit in Lancaster. (As I type “Lancaster”, I find myself making sure I pronounce it correctly! Gotta keep in practice for my next visit!)
Julie, these look and sound amazing! My husband love peaches and I’m definitely going to make these for him. Thanks for sharing! Pinned!
So glad to be hopping with you, Angie! Thanks!
Love anything made with the old classic, Bisquick! These look divine:) Pinned!
Hehe… Bisquick to the rescue! My niece has requested my Bisquick shortcake/scones for her baby shower. 😉
Oh yuuuuummmmm! Julie, I can almost taste how delicious and creamy these are! Pinned and cannot wait to try! That darn diet will just have to wait lol!
Yeah… I need to do some lifestyle changes here, too!
These look so refreshing for a summer dessert. I’ve pinned them and definitely plan to give them a try! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the pinning, Niky! Love your cookies!
Julie, your peach tartlets are so pretty, and look mouthwateringly (hope thats a word) delicious! I want to make these this summer. Pinning of course!
Thanks, Michelle. (And *I* think it’s a word, for sure!)
This looks delicious Julie! I just bought a box of peaches from a peach truck. My friends and I split a box actually. I can’t wait to try this recipe, since I have a lot of peaches to work with!
Oooo, let me know who they come out!
Julie, it’s so nice to be back at Pinterest Challenge with you. I love the idea of targets. I’ve never used Bisquick for a crust before, but I can see why it works for this one. Pinned.
This was my first time doing a Bisquick crust, too! It worked!
Julie these tartlets look amazing. Yum!
Thanks so much, Laura!
Julie, I have some tart pans and this would be a perfect recipe to use them with! I had two lemon tarts while I was in Paris this past week and still have a sweet tooth for more… ☺️
Enjoy your new kitchen,
Barb ⚜️💕
I’m jealous of your trip, and your lemon tarts! Enjoy the peach ones!
