Sweet Stone Fruit Galette
Description
This galette starts by slicing fresh medium plums and apricots into thin wedges and mixing them with granulated sugar. The fruit mixture provides natural sweetness and moisture balanced by the sugar before being layered atop a rolled store-bought pie crust.
The dough is unrolled onto parchment and the fruit is arranged in a single-layer circular pattern, alternating plum and apricot slices for visual appeal. The outer one and a half inch border of dough is folded over the fruit to enclose it partially, creating a rustic tart shape. An egg wash made from egg and cold water is brushed on the crust edges to promote browning and help the sugar adhering to the surface caramelize during baking.
Baking at 375°F for about 45 minutes produces a golden, flaky crust and tender fruit filling. The galette can be enjoyed warm or cooled to room temperature, making it a versatile dessert or snack showcasing fresh stone fruits.
Ingredients
- 1 pie crust rolled, store-bought
- 4 medium plum
- 4 medium apricots
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp water cold
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar divided
Instructions
- Remove pie crust from refrigerator and let sit for about 10 minutes before unrolling.
- Preheat oven to 375 F degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Cut fruit in half and remove the pits. Slice into ¼ in thick wedges. Toss with 1/4 cup of granulated sugar.
- Unroll the dough onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Leaving a 1 ½ inch border from the edge, arrange the fruit wedges in a single layer in concentric circles, alternating the fruit, until you reach the center.
- Fold the outer edges of the pie crust over the fruit, creating overlapping folds as you work around the perimeter.
- Whisk together egg and cold water. Brush the edges of the crust with the egg wash. Sprinkle entire pie with remaining 1/4 cup sugar.
- Bake galette for 45 minutes or until the edges are a golden brown. Serve warm or at room temperature.
