Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 6 tablespoons ice water
- 3 medium peaches, sliced
- 1.5 cups mixed berries (such as blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries)
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon water
- 2 tablespoons coarse sugar (for sprinkling)
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt.
Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Slowly add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently until the dough starts to come together. Avoid overworking the dough.
Divide the dough into two equal portions, shape them into discs, wrap them in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
While the dough chills, prepare the filling. In a medium bowl, combine the sliced peaches, mixed berries, brown sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Toss gently to coat the fruit evenly. Set aside.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C), and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out each disc of dough into a rough circle, about 10 inches in diameter. Transfer each circle to the prepared baking sheets.
Divide the fruit filling between the two dough circles, leaving a 2-inch border around the edges.
Fold the edges of the dough over the fruit filling, pleating as needed to form a rustic shape. The center will remain exposed.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash. Brush the edges of the galettes with the egg wash, then sprinkle with coarse sugar.
Bake the galettes in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Remove the galettes from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
