Vickys Strawberry & Blueberry Galette

  1. This makes enough pastry for 2 galettes so halve the dough and freeze the rest for another time or cut the pastry ingredients in half.
  2. I used about 450g of pastry in this galette
  3. Sift together the flours then add the salt, sugar and xanthan gum and mix together
  4. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs
  5. Start adding the water slowly until the dough begins to come together.
  6. Using more or less water is fine.
  7. The dough shouldn't be wet
  8. Roll into a ball, wrap with clingfilm and refrigerate for half an hour
  9. Alternatively use any other shortcrust recipe or pre-made pastry you prefer
  10. Preheat the oven to gas 6 / 200C / 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
  11. Flour a surface and roll out the dough into a rough circle.
  12. It should be around 14" in diameter
  13. Carefully drape the dough over your rolling pin and use that to place the dough on your baking tray
  14. Let it rest there while you prepare the filling
  15. Take the tops off the strawberries and cut them into chunks, quarters or slightly smaller is good
  16. Put the jam in a dish with the strawberry pieces and blueberries and mix together gently
  17. Spoon the mixture into the middle of the pastry leaving a good few inches gap from the edge
  18. Start folding the pastry over the filling.
  19. It shouldn't reach the middle but around a third or halfway in
  20. Pinch the pastry together where it wants to fold, you can make a pretty pattern if you like or give it a more rustic appearance
  21. Brush the top of the pastry with a little butter or a spray of oil and sprinkle with a little mixed spice.
  22. Put in the oven to bake for 35 - 40 minutes until the pastry is golden.
  23. Some of the juices will probably leak out but this is fine
  24. Remove from the oven and let the galette rest for 15 - 30 minutes
  25. Dust with some powdered sugar and garnish with some fresh berries to serve
  26. Try other fillings!
  27. Strawberry & rhubarb, apple & blackberry, serve with custard or cream, have it your way!
