Instructions
- Create the Pastry: In a medium-sized bowl, add the flour. Take the butter out of the fridge and cut into cubes. Add to flour and then use a pastry cutter to cut the butter into the flour until a crumbly dough is formed. Create a well in the mixture, add the cold water, and mix until all of the flour is incorporated. Form the pastry dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and store it in the fridge for 30 minutes.
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Create the Filling: Add the blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and ginger to a bowl. Mix well. Add sliced almonds and mix.
- Roll Out Pastry: On a sheet of parchment paper, add the chilled pastry dough. Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough into approximately a 7-inch round circle. Add the parchment paper with the rolled-out pastry to a cookie sheet.
- Add the Filling: Sprinkle the round with the semolina flour and then add the blueberries to the center of the round and spread it out, leaving 1 1/2 - 2 inch border around the edge of the circle.
- Fold-Up Edges: Gently fold the dough border over the filling, overlapping the edges of the dough as needed, ensuring that you close up any corners, leaving the center of the galette open.In a small bowl, whisk the egg and then use a pastry brush to brush the folded-over edges with the egg wash. Sprinkle with brown sugar.
- Bake: Place cookie sheet with galette on the center rack of the oven. Bake for 40 minutes.After 40 minutes, remove from oven and let cool for about 15 minutes before slicing. Enjoy!

- Blueberries: You can use frozen, but don't let them thaw. Add them frozen to the bowl and mix with the other filling ingredients. If you let them thaw, the blueberries will become too mushy.
- Almonds: The combination of the almond extract and sliced almonds add such great flavor to this galette. Be sure to use sliced or slivered almonds for a delicate crunch. You can omit the almonds and use vanilla extract instead.
