Peach Galette +VIDEO
Watch the video for this recipe:
This peach galette was probably the best dessert I served recently. I love the rustic look of the galette and the fresh yellow peaches along the flaky crust were amazingly delicious.
- Makes about 4 servings
- Crust:
- 1 1/4 cup (160g) flour
- 1 stick (110g) cold unsalted butter, cut into small (1/2-inch) cubes, chilled up to an hour in the freezer
- 1 1/2 tsp (7g) sugar
- 1/4 tsp (1g) salt
- 4 to 6 Tbsp (60-90ml) ice water
- Filling
- 2 or 3 yellow peaches
- 1/4 cup (50g) sugar
- 2 tbsp (30g) butter, melted
- 1 1/2 tsp (6g) corn starch
- sugar, for garnish
- Prepare the crust. Sift the flour and mix flour with salt and sugar. Incorporate butter to the flour, using a pastry blender, a fork or a pastry processor, until crumbs are formed. Slowly add the water and stir until the water is incorporated. Wrap it with plastic, knead slowly to form a disc and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Slice the peaches and place them in a bowl. Mix sugar with cornstarch and add over the peach slices. Add butter and toss gently to coat.
- Using the wrap plastic at the base, roll the dough to about a 13 inch diameter. Lift up the rolled dough and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
-
Arrange the peach slices in overlapping circles starting one and a half inch from the edge. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling and sprinkle with sugar.
-
Bake for about 40 45 minutes, remove from the oven and let cool for 10-15 minutes. Cut and serve with vanilla ice cream.
Thank you for your appreciation. Yes, galettes are just perfect every time you don't have a pan at your service, and I would say faster solution:).
Thank you Sarah. It was delicious, I could hardly wait to finish with the photos so we can finally serve it :). I love this time of the year too.
Thank you Janet. Yes the dough can get leaky if the butter starts melting. It is important to work as fast as possible with it. Also sprinkle some flour on the rolling pin before starting to roll the dough, it will help too. Maybe you will try this recipe of the crust, and it will work better for you. Let me know.
i am glad this convinced you to give it a try.
I am so glad you liked the video and tried this recipe. I think basil is a good addition, thanks for the idea.
I love galettes too.. so quick to prepare and so delicious.. let me know if you enjoyed the peach one as well
It is important to make sure it is cold enough as pieces of butter still need to be a bit visible in the dough. Try to not overwork the dough. Those pieces of butter will create that flaky, tasty crust, other wise it will be tough.
So happy you enjoyed this recipe:) I simply love galettes.. recently made one with apples.. so so good too:)
just added the metric measurements.. hope you will try it out :) enjoy baking
