NECTARINE OR PEACH AND BLACKBERRY GALETTE



Nectarine or Peach and Blackberry Galette image

Nectarines and peaches work equally well here, as long as they're ripe and sweet. You can find almond powder, also called almond flour, in markets that sell baking supplies. The thin layer under the fruit will absorb juice so that the crust doesn't get soggy. Once you assemble the galette, you must place it in the freezer for an hour before baking, so plan accordingly.

Time 2h30m

Yield 1 9-inch galette, serving 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 dessert galette pastry (1/2 recipe)
1 1/2 pounds ripe nectarines, pitted and sliced
1 basket (6 ounces) blackberries
2 tablespoons mild honey, like clover, or 3 tablespoons brown sugar
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
25 grams (1/4 cup) almond powder
1 egg beaten with 1 teaspoon milk, for egg wash
1 tablespoon raw brown sugar

Steps:

  • Remove the pastry from the freezer and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Leave it to thaw while you prepare the fruit, but don't keep it out of the freezer for too long. It will thaw quickly and is easiest to handle if it's cold. You want it just soft enough so that you can manipulate it.
  • Combine the nectarines, blackberries, honey or 2 tablespoons of the sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon and the vanilla in a large bowl and gently toss together.
  • Sprinkle the almond powder over the pastry, leaving a 2- to 3-inch border all around. Place the fruit on top. Fold the edges of the dough in over the fruit, pleating the edges as you work your way around the fruit to form a free-form tart that is roughly 9 inches in diameter. Place in the freezer on the baking sheet for 45 minutes to an hour. This helps the galette maintain its shape.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Remove the galette from the freezer. Brush the exposed edge of the pastry with the egg wash. Combine the remaining tablespoon of sugar and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon and sprinkle over the fruit and the crust. Place in the oven and bake 1 hour, until the fruit is bubbly and the juice is running out and caramelizing on the parchment. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for at least 15 minutes. Serve hot or warm or at room temperature.

PEACH & BLACKBERRY GALETTE RECIPE - (4.1/5)



Peach & Blackberry Galette Recipe - (4.1/5) image

Provided by cookism

Number Of Ingredients 17

For galette pastry:
600 g peaches, pitted and sliced
150 g blackberries
2 tbsp honey
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla bean paste
1/4 cup almond meal
1 tbsp brown sugar
11/4 cup plain flour
1 tbsp caster sugar
1/4 tsp salt
115 g chilled unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
1/2 tsp vanilla bean paste
3 to 5 tbsp ice water, as required
For egg wash:
1 egg
1 tsp milk

Steps:

  • 1. Mix together flour, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Add in chilled butter and gently rub butter into flour mixture with your fingertips until the mixture achieves a texture like breadcrumbs. Add in vanilla bean paste and 3 tbsp ice water into the mixture. Using your hands, gently mix the dough till just combined. Test the dough by pinching a small amount of it between your fingers to see if it holds together. Add about 1 to 2 tbsp of ice water if the dough feels dry. It will be ready when the crumbs hold together easily and don't feel wet. Tip the dough onto a floured workstation. Flour your hands and shape the dough into a flat disk. Wrap it in a plastic wrap and chill for an hour before using. 2. While galette dough is resting, prepare the filling. Combine peaches, half of the blackberries, honey, vanilla bean paste and 3/4 tsp cinnamon in a large bowl and toss well. Set it aside to marinate. 3. Roll out the dough on a lightly-floured parchment paper with a floured rolling pin to about 11 to 12 inch in diameter. Sprinkle almond meal over the middle section of the pastry, leaving a 2 to 3 inch border. Within the border, arrange fruits to your liking. 4. Fold in the edges of the dough, overlapping the fruits to form a free-form tart. Place in the freezer for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 180C. For the eggwash, beat egg and milk together till combined. Brush the edges of the pastry with the eggwash. Combine and mix remaining 1/4 tsp of cinnamon with brown sugar. Sprinkle over the galette. 5. Bake for 1 hour until the fruits are soft and the crust is golden. Allow to cool for at least 15 minutes and serve with remaining blackberries on top. Enjoy!
