Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
  • 3-4 tablespoons ice water
  • 2 cups mixed fresh berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 egg (for egg wash)
  • Coarse sugar for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.
  3. Add the chilled butter to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Form into a disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  5. In another bowl, combine the mixed berries, vanilla extract, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Toss gently to coat the berries.
  6. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a 12-inch circle, about 1/8 inch thick. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  7. Spoon the berry mixture into the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold the edges of the dough over the berries, pleating as necessary to create a rustic look.
  8. Brush the edges of the crust with beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
  9. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the berries are bubbling. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

Tip: Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for a delicious pairing.

When making the galette crust, be sure to keep your ingredients cold; this helps achieve a flaky texture. If you don’t have fresh berries, frozen ones work just as well—just be sure to thaw and drain them before using. For added flavor, you can sprinkle a bit of cinnamon or nutmeg over the berries.

This galette can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for a few minutes to regain its crispy texture before serving.
