Peach Galette
Description
The Peach Galette features sliced peaches mixed with flour, sugar, almond extract, lemon juice, and cinnamon, which are folded into a simple rolled-out pie crust. By leaving a wide border around the peaches and folding the dough up over the filling, the galette retains a rustic shape. Small dots of butter placed on top enhance richness as the fruit bakes. The egg wash brushed on the crust and a sprinkle of coarse sugar create an appealing golden, slightly crunchy topping once baked for about 35 to 40 minutes.
This style of open-faced tart allows the peach's juicy texture to shine without becoming soggy, since the excess peach juice is not added on top. The warmth of cinnamon and brightness of lemon complement the natural sweetness of the peaches. Serve the peach galette warm or at room temperature, either on its own or accompanied by a scoop of ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
Since the recipe notes are empty, no additional tips are available, but careful handling of the crust and not overloading the filling with juice helps maintain its shape and texture.
Ingredients
- 1 pie crust see our Perfect Pie Crust recipe HERE
- 4-6 peaches
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 1/2 cups sugar
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 egg
- sugar coarse
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375.
- Pit and slice peaches. Optional: Remove the skins.
- Add peach slices to a large bowl. Add flour, sugar, almond extract, lemon juice, and cinnamon. Stir until evenly coated.
- On a floured sheet of parchment paper, roll out your pie crust until it is about 1/8 inch thick. Top with peaches. Leave a wide border around the edges for folding the crust. Do not add the juice from the bowl. The galette will be very juicy without the extra juices.
- Cut butter into small pieces and place around the top of the peaches.
- Fold the edges of the dough up over the filling. Galettes are meant to look rustic, so it doesn't have to be perfect.
- In a small bowl, beat the egg with a few tablespoons of water. Brush over the crust. Sprinkle coarse sugar over the crust.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until filling is bubbly and crust is golden brown. Serve alone or with ice cream or whipped cream.
