Instructions
To make the pastry
- Put the flours and butter in a food processor and pulse until it forms a breadcrumb-like texture. Add the sour cream and lemon juice and pulse until it comes together as a ball. You can also make by hand by rubbing the butter into the flour then mixing in other ingredients.
- Remove the dough from the food processor, bring it together in a ball then wrap in plastic wrap/cling film. Chill ideally for at least 30 minutes. Note you can make it a day or two ahead.
To make galettes
- Preheat oven to 375F/190C.
- Cut the pear in half, remove the core and peel each half. Slice each half relatively thinly with slices across the way.
- Divide the dough in half and roll out each half into an oval around 1 ½ times the length of the pear. Transfer the dough to a lined baking sheet. (I know, I didn't do this in the video but it would be easier! Also I did more of a circle- again oval better)
- Lay a half cut pear on each and gently press the slices to one side to fan out slightly. Fold in the edges, pinching together slightly, to hold the pear in place.
- Tuck some chocolate chips under the pastry and add a couple on top. Add a few pieces of hazelnut then brush the top with butter (it might be easier to do before you add the hazelnut, as you prefer).
- Bake the galettes for around 20 minutes until the pastry is gently browned.
