Basic galette recipe with a blueberry filling
Course Dessert
Servings 6 Servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Galette Dough Room Temperature
  • 3 cups Fresh Blueberries About 1 lb
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Zest
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice Use the lemon that you zested!
  • 2 tbsp Corn Starch
  • ½ cup Sugar
  • ¼ tsp Cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp Kosher Salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425°
  • Let the Galette Dough sit and come to room temperature. If it's too cold, it will crumble as you fold the edges over, which isn't a problem taste wise, but it will really irritate you since the filling will ooze all over the place.
  • Mix together the cornstarch, sugar, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl and add the blueberries, lemon zest and juice.
  • On a large piece of floured parchment paper, roll out the dough about 1/8" thick, 13-14 inches. Try to keep it roughly round.
  • Place the dough in a rimmed baking sheet. It's easy to just lift up the parchment paper with the dough and place it on the baking sheet.
  • Arrange the fruit mixture in the center of the dough leaving a couple inches of dough around the edges. Then fold the edge of the dough up over the fruit filling, pinching it to stay in place.
  • Brush the egg over the edges of the galette and sprinkle the sugar all around the rim.
  • Bake at 450° until the fruit filling is bubbling and the pastry is golden brown, approx. 30 minutes.

Notes

This is even more amazing when served with some vanilla ice cream!
