Ingredients
CRUST:
- ¾ cup fresh grated parmesan cheese lightly packed
- 1 cup all-purpose flour plus more for dusting and rolling
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter cold, cut into 12 small cubes
- 1 egg yolk to brush the crust before baking
TOPPINGS:
- 2-3 medium heirloom tomatoes sliced thin
- 6-8 basil leaves for garnish
- drizzle olive oil
- pinch salt and pepper
Instructions
MAKE DOUGH:
- In a food processor, add the flour, parmesan cheese, salt, cold butter, baking powder, sugar, and pulse until all of the ingredients are incorporated.
- Once the butter has incorporated evenly within the flour, add the ice-cold water one tbsp at a time while pulsing. Keep adding up to 4 tbsp of the ice-cold water until a ball of dough forms.
- Cover the dough with saran wrap and plate it into the fridge and let it rest for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375 °F.

ROLL DOUGH:
- When ready, dust a flat surface with flour and a rolling pin. Roll out the dough to create a 12-inch crust. Do the best you can do. After you have rolled it out, transfer the dough with your rolling pin onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper if necessary.
ASSEMBLE:
- Slice the tomatoes as thin as you can without them falling apart. Use a paper towel to pat off any excess juices from the tomatoes. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Place each tomato nicely in the center of the dough. Fold the edges to create that signature shape. Brush the edges with an egg yolk and a sprinkle of pepper (optional).
BAKE:
- Place the galette into a preheated oven set at 375°F for 45 minutes. The edges should be nice and golden brown.
COOL AND SERVE:
- Enjoy once the galette has cooled for 10-15 minutes. Garnish with a drizzle of olive oil and torn pieces of basil.
- Serve.
