Step-by-step
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees Celsius

- Arrange peach slices in a 21cm (base measurement) cake tin, overlapping slightly. Drizzle half the syrup over peaches.
- Trim pastry to a 22cm round (it will be a little big, but will shrink during cooking). Bake for 20 minutes, until pastry is golden.
- Place frying pan with remaining syrup back over medium heat and cook for 5 minutes, or until reduced and thickened slightly. Stir in vanilla.
- Stand tart in tin for 5 minutes. Place a large plate over tin, and carefully invert. Lift off tin. Drizzle with syrup, sprinkle with rosemary, and serve immediately with cream.
