Report
This easy to make blueberry galette is full of fresh berries cradled in a crisp butter crust. It's like the pizza version of pie!

Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 300g, plus more for rolling
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar 50g
- 1/4 tsp sea salt 1g, heaping
- 1 cup unsalted butter 226g, frozen
- 1/4 cup ice water 60 mL
For the Filling
- 4 cups blueberries 750g
- 1/4 cup sugar 50g
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp lemon zest 15mL
- 2 tbsp lemon juice 30mL
For the Egg Wash
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp milk
Instructions
For the Pastry:
- Add the 2 1/2 cups flour, the sugar, and salt into a food processor. Give it a few pulses.
- Cut COLD butter into tbsp size pieces. Transfer to food processor and pulse until the butter is cut into small lentil-sized clumps.
- Slowly drizzle in about 1/4 cup of the ice water while pulsing processor. If the mixture doesn't hold together when you squeezer a clump in your hand then add a bit more water and pulse.
- Transfer dough onto a pastry mat or sheet of plastic wrap and knead 2-3 times just to help it come together a bit. Gently flatten into a one inch-thick disk, and cover in plastic wrap and chill for an hour.
- Once your pie crust is chilled, preheat oven to 425F and remove the dough from fridge and let it warm up on the counter for a few minutes, this will prevent cracking. Roll our pie crust to about 1/4 of an inch and transfer to a baking sheet.
For the Filling:
- In a bowl, gently stir together the berries, lemon juice, zest, sugar, and flour.
For the Assembly:
- In a small bowl, lightly beat the egg with a tablespoon of cream.
- Spoon the filling onto the dough, leaving a 2-3 inch border uncovered around the edge. Fold the edge up and over the filling, forming loose pleats. Brush pastry with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar if desired.
- Bake at 425F until the filling is bubbling and the pastry is golden brown, about 25 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve.
Notes
- If your dough looks crumbly after adding the water then place a spoonful in the palm of your hand and squeeze together. if it forms into a clump then it's fine! If it's still a crumbly mess add a few more tablespoons of ice water.
- Give the egg wash a thorough mix for a nice even golden crust, globs of egg white will mar the look and texture.
- When rolling out the dough make sure to move it around frequently and add more flour to the work surface and top.
- If your dough cracks while rolling pinch together and let it rest a minute or two. It's probably too cold.
- Use any berries you love. Apples are great in this too!
