Best 4 Rustic Peach Berry Galettes Recipes

RUSTIC PIES/GALETTES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
• Stir together the prepared fruit, 1/2 cup sugar, flour, and spices and/or seasonings in a large bowl until combined.
• On a well-floured surface, using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll out the dough into a large circle, about 12 to 14 inches. Make sure the rolled dough is chilled. Spoon the fruit mixture onto the center of the dough leaving a 1-inch border. Fold the edges of the dough over the fruit, pleating the dough, then dot the fruit filling with the butter pieces. Lightly brush the dough with egg wash and sprinkle with 2 teaspoons sugar.
• Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling, 25 to 30 minutes. Cover the crust with foil if the crust browns too quickly. Cool.
• Serve the warm galette with ice cream.
• Cook's Note: The same recipe can be made in individual serving sizes.
• To make pie dough:
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a mixing bowl, mix together the flour and the salt; cut or work the butter into the flour with your fingers or a pastry blender until you have large pea sized chunks scattered throughout. Alternatively, pulse the dough in a food processor, or mix in a stand mixer with the paddle attachment on low speed.
• Add the ice water slowly while stirring with a fork, or in the food processor or mixer, until just combined. Be careful not to overwork the dough. Divide the dough into 2 disks, flatten and refrigerate each for at least 15 minutes.
• Roll out one chilled pie dough to fit a 9-inch pie plate. Reserve the second pie dough disc for another use. Transfer dough to pie plate, pressing the dough lightly into the plate; trim the edges. Dock the dough with the prongs of a fork evenly over the bottom of the pie plate. Line the docked dough with aluminum foil and fill with pie weights or dried beans.
• Bake the pie crust until the edges are brown and golden, about 15 minutes Remove from the oven and remove the weights. Return crust to the oven to finish baking for another 5 minutes.
• Rustic Pie/Galette Variations:
• Almond Apricot: Season the sliced apricots with almond paste or extract.
• Spiced-Apple Pear: Season the sliced apples and pears with cinnamon, nutmeg, and brown sugar.
• All-Berry: Fill the baked crust with pastry cream and top with sweetened berries.
• Caramelized Onion and Walnut: Caramelize 4 Spanish onions; let cool. Top the dough with grated Gruyere cheese and spread the onions and toasted walnuts over the cheese.

RUSTIC FRUIT GALETTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Combine apples, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and vanilla extract together in a bowl. Place pie crust on the prepared baking sheet. Spoon apple mixture into the center of crust, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold crust over the edges of the apple mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until apples are tender and crust is golden, about 30 minutes.

BLUEBERRY AND PEACH GALETTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Roll out room temperature pie crust on parchment paper placed on a baking sheet. Make sure you use the parchment paper because the mixture will leak out!
• Mix blueberries and peaches with flour, sugar and lemon juice in large bowl until completely mixed.
• Add fruit mixture to the middle of the pie dough and turn up sides of dough all around. The dough will overlap at certain areas. This is okay, it makes it rustic!
• Mix egg white and milk together with whisk in small bowl and brush on the pie crust edges. Sprinkle sugar over wet dough.
• Bake in oven for 1 hour.
• Cool before serving.

RUSTIC PEACH & BERRY GALETTES

Steps:

• Pastry.
• In a small bowl, whisk butttermilk and water.
• In a large bowl, whisk flour, cornmeal, sugar and salt.
• Using pastry blender or two knives, cut in butter.
• Sprinkle pastry with buttermilk mixture; with a fork mix until just combined, you may not need all of the buttermilk mixture, save any left to brush on just before putting in oven.
• Turn pastry onto lightly floured surface; divide into four pieces and press each into disc shape.
• Wrap discs individually in plastic wrap; refrigerate two hours or overnight.
• To prepare galettes.
• In a large bowl, combine peaches, berries, sugar and honey.
• On lightly floured surface, roll chilled pastry discs into 6 inch circle, about 1/8 inch thick; transfer rounds to parchment lined baking sheet and repeat with remaining dough.
• (I did not use parchment, I sprayed a rimmed cookie sheet with veggie spray).
• Arrange 1 cup of peach mixture in centre of each circle, leaving 1 1/2 inch edge; top with butter.
• Fold dough over fruit, pleating and leaving centre uncovered; brush pastry with water, (I used left over buttermilk mixture), and sprinkle with remaining sugar.
• Bake in the bottom third of a 400f degree oven 20 to 25 minutes or until pastry is golden and crisp, cool on rack.
• Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
• Almost any combination of 4 cups of fruit can be used, I used more blueberries, less peaches, because that is what I had around.
• I also made only two and cut each one in half when I served it; for smaller servings they could even be cut into 4 each.
