3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons skim milk

BLACKBERRY-BLUEBERRY TART W/CORNMEAL CRUST



Blackberry-Blueberry Tart W/Cornmeal Crust image

This is a very lovely summer pie, sweet, but not cloying, with a buttery cornmeal crust. I used frozen blueberries and blackberries, but feel free to use all blueberries or any other berry you'd like (though you may need to adjust the sugar amounts accordingly per berry swap).

Tips:

  • Use fresh blueberries and blackberries for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh berries, frozen berries will work, but thaw them completely before using.
  • Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make it tough. Mix it just until it comes together.
  • Chill the dough before rolling it out. This will make it easier to work with and less likely to tear.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the galette. A dull knife will tear the dough.
  • Bake the galette until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

This blueberry and blackberry galette with cornmeal crust is a delicious and easy-to-make summer dessert. The sweet and tart berries are complemented perfectly by the crumbly cornmeal crust. This galette is sure to be a hit at your next party or potluck.
