Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 tablespoon butter salted or unsalted is fine
  • 2 leek cleaned and thinly sliced, white and light green parts only (about 3 cups, medium
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 2 teaspoons rosemary divided, minced fresh
  • 1 pie dough store bought or homemade, unsweetened, disc-shaped
  • 6 ounces goat cheese fresh
  • 1 pear thinly sliced (you may need 2 pears if small, large
  • ¼ cup walnuts chopped
  • 1 egg optional, beaten with 1 tablespoon water for egg wash

Notes

  • Don't slice the pears until you're ready to top the galette to prevent them from turning brown. 
  • Make sure your pie dough is cold at all times. This makes it easier to handle and ensures it bakes up tender and flaky. 
  • The leek mixture must be completely cooled before adding it to the pie dough. If the mixture is still warm, it will warm the dough and will not bake up as well. 
  • Pop the galette into the freezer for a few minutes before baking to help the crust stay flaky.
