Apricot-Blackberry Galette
- All-purpose flour, for dusting
- 1/2 recipe Cornmeal Pate Brisee (recipe follows)
- 12 fresh apricots (1 1/2 pounds), pitted and cut into sixths
- 2 cups fresh blackberries
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- Juice of 1/2 lemon (about 1 tablespoon)
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- Pinch of salt
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- Sanding sugar (or granulated sugar), for sprinkling (optional)
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cornmeal
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, cold, cut into small pieces
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup ice water
- (makes enough for two 9-inch single-crust pies or one 9-inch double-crust pie)
- On a lightly floured work surface, roll out dough to a 14-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick.
- Transfer dough to a large parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Refrigerate until ready to use, up to 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375F.
- In a large bowl, gently toss together apricots, blackberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and salt.
- Arrange fruit mixture on top of dough, leaving a 2-inch border all the way around.
- Fold border over the fruit mixture, overlapping where necessary and pressing gently to adhere the folds.
- Brush edges of dough with egg, and sprinkle with sanding sugar, if using.
- Bake until crust is golden brown and the juices are bubbling, about 1 hour.
- Transfer the baking sheet to a wire rack to cool the galette.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
- Place the flour, cornmeal, salt, and sugar in the bowl of a food processor, and pulse several times to combine.
- Add the butter, and process until the mixture resembles coarse meal, about 10 seconds.
- With the machine running, pour the ice water through the feed tube in a slow, steady stream, until the dough just holds together (do not process for more than 30 seconds).
- Turn out the dough onto a clean work surface.
- Divide in half, and place each half on a piece of plastic wrap.
- Flatten each to form a disk.
- Wrap, and refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 1 day before using.
- Dough is rolled into a round, then filling is mounded in the center, leaving a 2-inch border.
- The border is folded up to partially cover fruit, then overlapped and pressed to adhere.
