BERRY GALETTE



Berry Galette image

Nothing says summer like fresh berries baked up into a juicy dessert! Galettes are easier than pies, and I love the rustic look. I used raspberries and blueberries in this galette, but it works with a mix of any berries, or just one kind. Make sure you have ice cream or whipped cream to top it with!

Time 1h55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons white sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
½ (8 ounce) package cold cream cheese, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 tablespoon ice water, or more as needed
3 cups frozen raspberries and blueberries
1 ½ teaspoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 ½ tablespoons cornstarch
1 pinch salt
¼ cup strawberry jam
1 egg
1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon turbinado sugar

Steps:

  • Pulse flour, sugar, and salt together in a food processor. Add butter and cream cheese; pulse until mixture looks like wet sand.
  • Sprinkle 1 tablespoon ice water over the mixture. Pulse until dough just starts to clump together; add a bit more water if it looks very dry.
  • Turn dough out onto a sheet of plastic wrap. Gather and gently press together into a cohesive ball. Use the wrap to press dough out into a thick disk. Wrap well and chill until firm, at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly dust a flat work surface with flour. Roll dough into a 12-inch circle, moving dough around frequently to prevent sticking. Trim edges if they look very rough. Fold up dough into quarters. Brush off excess flour and transfer to the baking sheet. Unfold gently.
  • Refrigerate dough while preparing the filling.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Combine berries, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Mix sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a small bowl. Pour over berries and toss gently to combine.
  • Remove dough from the refrigerator. Spread jam over the middle, leaving a thick border around the edges. Mound berries over the jam. Fold the edges of the dough over the berries and pleat it every few inches.
  • Whisk egg and water together. Brush the border of the galette with the egg wash and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until crust is deep golden and juices are bubbling, 25 to 30 minutes. Check the underside of the galette is also browned. Transfer baking sheet to a wire rack and let cool before slicing.

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tsp. cornstarch
1 tsp. finely grated lemon zest
1 tsp. kosher salt
1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper (optional)
1/3 cup sugar, plus more for sprinkling
2 lb. strawberries or other berries, hulled, halved if large
1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
1 tsp. vanilla extract
Extra-Flaky Pastry Dough
1 Tbsp. heavy cream
Softly whipped cream or vanilla ice cream (for serving; optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Combine cornstarch, lemon zest, salt, pepper (if using), and 1/3 cup sugar in a medium bowl. Toss with your hands to combine, then add strawberries and toss to coat. Add lemon juice and vanilla; toss gently.
  • Arrange berry mixture in the center of chilled dough (still on parchment on baking sheet) and spread out evenly, leaving a 3" border. Fold edges of dough up and over fruit, pleating as needed and being careful that folded edge of dough doesn't tear (if it does, patch with dough scraps and pinch to seal). Pour cream into a small bowl and brush all over dough. Sprinkle sugar evenly over dough.
  • Place galette in oven and immediately reduce heat to 375°F. Bake, rotating halfway through, until crust is deep golden brown everywhere, berries are softened, and juices are bubbling, 45-50 minutes. Let cool 2 hours. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream if desired.

TRIPLE BERRY GALETTE



Triple Berry Galette image

This galette is one of my favorite things to bake when I have an abundance of fresh berries. The strawberries and blueberries lend a sweet jam-like texture when baked, while the blackberries retain a firm bite for a contrast in textures. I continue to make this recipe even after berry season since it works beautifully with a mix of thawed frozen berries. I use a crust that mixes shortening and grated frozen butter for super flakiness, but you could also substitute your favorite homemade or store-bought pie dough.

Time 6h

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 cups all-purpose flour, plus extra for dusting
2 tablespoons packed light-brown sugar or granulated sugar
3/4 teaspoon fine salt
4 tablespoons vegetable shortening
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, frozen
5 tablespoons cold water
2 teaspoons white vinegar or apple cider vinegar
1/2 pound fresh blueberries
1/2 pound fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
1/2 pound fresh blackberries
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
Pinch fine salt
Zest of 1 lemon or orange
Juice of 1 lemon or orange
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 tablespoons heavy cream or milk
1 tablespoon granulated sugar

Steps:

  • For the crust: Whisk the flour, sugar and salt together in a medium bowl. Add the shortening and work it into the flour by smashing and smearing it in with your fingers until the shortening is
  • nearly incorporated. Use the large holes of a box grater to grate the frozen butter into the flour mixture. Use a whisk or plastic bowl scraper to toss the butter into the flour and break up the pieces until they are the size of peas. Combine the water and vinegar in a cup, then stir the mixture into the flour mixture. Press and fold the dough in the bowl a few times to incorporate any dry bits of flour.
  • Place two pieces of plastic wrap on a work surface so they overlap slightly and place the dough in the center. Fold one side of the plastic over and flatten the dough slightly. Repeat on all four sides to incorporate any last dry bits of dough, repeating if needed. Wrap the dough securely in the plastic, flatten it into a rough circle and chill at least 2 hours or overnight. (Before rolling, allow the dough to rest at room temperature for 5 minutes.)
  • For the filling: Combine the blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, sugar, cornstarch and salt in a medium bowl and toss until the berries are coated with the dry ingredients. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice and vanilla and toss to combine. Set aside.
  • Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. On a lightly floured surface, use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a circle about 17 inches wide. Use a knife or pizza cutter to trim the edges so they are even, creating a circle about 16 inches wide. Dust the top of the dough very lightly with flour and then roll the dough around the rolling pin and transfer it to the prepared sheet pan and unroll (it's okay if the dough hangs over the edge). Patch any cracks with scraps of dough moistened with water. This will prevent your galette from leaking as it bakes.
  • Pour the berry filling and any accumulated juices into the center of the dough. Spread the filling out, leaving a 3-inch border around the edges. Fold the border of dough over the fruit, allowing the dough to pleat as you fold. Press the dough gently down at the pleats to ensure that it seals. Brush the dough with the cream and sprinkle with the sugar. Place the galette in the freezer for 20 minutes.
  • While the galette chills, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Bake the galette for 10 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 400 degrees F and bake until the crust is golden and the fruit is bubbling, 45 to 50 minutes longer; rotate the pan during the last 20 minutes of baking if the galette is browning unevenly. Cool at least 2 hours before slicing and serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right berries: Use a variety of berries for a more flavorful galette. Look for berries that are ripe and in season.
  • Use a good quality butter: The butter in the crust and filling adds a lot of flavor to the galette. Use a high-quality, unsalted butter for the best results.
  • Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make it tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together, then wrap it in plastic wrap and chill it for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out.
  • Roll the dough out thinly: The dough should be about 1/8-inch thick. This will help it cook evenly.
  • Trim the excess dough: Once you've filled the galette, trim the excess dough around the edges. This will help the galette look neat and tidy.
  • Bake the galette until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling: This usually takes about 30-35 minutes.

Conclusion:

A galette is a delicious and rustic dessert that can be made with any type of berry. It's a perfect way to use up fresh berries in the summer, and it's also a great dessert to serve at a party or potluck. With a little planning and effort, you can make a galette that will impress your friends and family.
