Instructions
CRUST
- Combine flour, sugar, and salt in the basin of a food processor³ and pulse to combine.
- Scatter butter pieces over the top of your dry ingredients and pulse until butter is cut into the dry ingredients and the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add sour cream and pulse again until the mixture begins to clump together. Transfer to a piece of plastic wrap or wax paper and form into a ball. Lightly flatten into a disc and chill for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
FILLING
- While galette crust is chilling, preheat oven to 400F (205C) and prepare your fruit filling.
- Combine fruit, sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and salt in a large bowl and stir until well-combined. Set aside.
ASSEMBLY
- Once dough has finished chilling, remove from refrigerator and transfer to a clean, lightly floured surface. Dust with additional flour and roll out to a 12-13” circle. Transfer to a baking sheet (sometimes I will use a round pizza pan, but a standard cookie sheet works, too).
- Prepare egg wash by whisking together egg and water in a small bowl. Use a pastry brush to lightly brush your pie dough with egg wash (this will help keep the galette from getting soggy). Don’t discard egg wash yet.
- Give your fruit one more stir in the bowl and then carefully transfer to the center of your galette crust, leaving a 2” perimeter of fruit-free crust.
- Fold the perimeter/border of your crust carefully over the fruit filling and pinch together to secure (it will not completely cover it, you should have a nice circle of exposed fruit in the center!).
- Dot the fruit with butter pieces, if using.
- Brush the folded-over pastry with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar, if desired.
- Transfer to 400F (205C) oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the fruit is bubbling and the crust is a nice golden color. Allow to cool before slicing and serving.
Notes
- ¹By prepared I mean rinsed, dried, stems/pits/skins removed as applicable, and sliced into ¼" thick slices or bite-sized pieces. This was 3 heaping cups of fruit for me and I used 1 heaping cup each of raspberries, blueberries, and sliced peaches.
- ²If using very juicy fruites (such as all peaches, juicy strawberries, etc.) then increase this to 2 Tablespoons of cornstarch so that your galette doesn’t become soggy.
- ³If you don’t have a food processor, you can use a pastry cutter or grater to cut the butter into the dry ingredients and then stir in the sour cream.
