Between two sheets of baking paper, roll out the short crust pastry dough into a round with a rolling pin to 1/4 inch thickness. Remove one of the baking paper sheets.
Transfer to the baking tray, baking paper side down and sprinkle over the the corn flour and cinnamon powder.
Start layering the sliced peaches from the center going outward. Make sure to leave around 1 - 11/2 inch board around the edge.
Fold over the edges onto the peaches and press down.
Brush the pastry with heavy cream and sprinkle over the granulated sugar.
Bake for 30-35 minutes of until golden and the pastry is dry to the touch.
Slice and serve it warm with vanilla ice cream.
Notes
I like to dust the galette with icing sugar once baked as there is no added sugar and this gives it a little sweetness but also looks pretty.
Make sure the oven is preheated or else the galette will not bake up well and get soggy,
If the peaches are sour then add some brown sugar to the mixture to sweeten it up.
