Berry Galette Recipe
- A 1/2 recipe Galette Dough, chilled
- 1 A 1/2 cups mixed fresh berries (or cut up peeled fruit); some popular mixtures include: blueberries with raspberries; peaches and apricots; tart apples and sweet pears. Since strawberries are so watery, use less of them in this recipe.
- 1 tbs. plus 1 tsp. sugar
- 1 tbs. honey (optional)
- 1 tbs. cold unsalted butter
- Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat the oven to 400A degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Put the dough on a lightly floured work surface and roll it into an 11-inch circle thatas about 1/8 inch thick.
- Since the dough is soft, youall need to lift it now and then and toss some more flour under it and over the top.
- Roll up the dough around your rolling pin and transfer it to the prepared baking sheet.
- (Alternatively, roll the dough out on the baking sheet, or at least the parchment paper.
- This way, you donat have to mess with lifting dough and having it stick to itself; just slip the baking sheet under the parchment paper.)
- Spread the berries over the dough, leaving a 2- to 3- inch border.
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the sugar over the fruit and drizzle on the honey, if youare using it.
- Cut the butter into slivers and scatter it on top of the fruit.
- Fold the uncovered border of dough up over the filling, allowing the dough to pleat as you lift it up and work your way around the galette.
- (Because youare folding a wide edge of dough onto a smaller part of the circle, it will pleat naturally a" just go with it.
- Weare talking big pleats; you might have five or six for the whole thing.)
- Dip a pastry brush in water, give the edge of the crust a light coating, and then sprinkle the crust with the remaining teaspoon of sugar.
- (For a little extra crunch, consider using raw cane sugar.)
- Baking the Galette a" Bake the galette for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and crisp.
- Transfer the baking sheet to a cooling rack and let the galette rest on the sheet for 10 minutes.
- Slip a wide spatula or a small baking sheet under the galette and slide it onto the cooling rack.
- Serve warm or at room temperature, cutting the tart with a pizza wheel or a sharp knife.
- Storage a" The galette is best eaten the day it is made.
