Peach, Honey And Rosemary Galette
- Dough
- 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup finely ground almonds (I like unpeeled)
- 1/2 cup cold butter
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2-4 tablespoons ice water
- 1 tablespoon milk (for brushing)
- 1 tablespoon sugar (for sprinkling)
- Filling
- 4-5 peaches
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 - 1 teaspoons rosemary leaves (finely chopped)
- Prepare the dough. Whisk flour, almonds, sugar and salt together in a bowl. Cut the cold butter into pieces and incorporate into flour mixture until only small pieces of butter remain. Add ice water and mix until the dough comes together. Almonds absorb less water than flour, so start with just 2 tablespoons of water and add if needed: you don't want the dough to be wet. As a rule, with galettes, try to keep the butter as cold as possible and not to over-mix.
- Shape the dough into a ball, pat to form a flat disk, wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour in the fridge.
- While the dough chills, cut the peaches into thin slices into a bowl, and toss them with 1 tablespoon of honey and rosemary leaves (I normally use 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of rosemary, according to taste). Depending on size, you may need 4 to 5 peaches. In this version I used doughnut peaches (which tends to be smaller than regular peaches), and I needed 6 of them.
- Preheat the oven to 400u0b0F.
- Roll the dough on a lightly floured work surface into a 11-inch circle, then transfer to a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Distribute the filling in the centre of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border around. If the peaches are very juicy you may want to dust the dough with a layer of ground almonds, which will absorb part of the liquid (I always do it because I like the texture and taste of the almonds mixed with the peach juice). Fold the border over the filling and chill the galette until the dough is firm, about 15 minutes.
- Brush with 1 tablespoon of milk and sprinkle the border with the remaining tablespoon of sugar, if you like. Bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes, and enjoy!
