Cherry Galette image

I discovered the ease of Recipe #94405 recently, and my non-baking self fell in love. When I was overloaded with sweet cherries, I had to find a galette recipe to use them. This is an adaptation of a recipe found at an online wine site. That recipe used a homemade crust, but I think that the part of the appeal of the galette for me, aside from satisfying my sweet tooth, is the ease of using the refrigerated ones.

Time 1h

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup unsalted almonds, toasted and cooled
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, freshly grated
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 lbs sweet cherries, pitted (I used a mix of Bing and Ranier.)
1 refrigerated pie crust
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon heavy cream
2 tablespoons sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375.
  • On a piece of lightly floured parchment, roll out dough.
  • Transfer dough and parchment to a baking sheet.
  • Process 1/4 sugar, almonds, nutmeg, and salt in food processor until almonds are ground.
  • Gently toss with the cherries.
  • Spoon cherries over dough, leaving a 2" border.
  • Dot with butter.
  • Fold in edges, pressing gently.
  • Whisk yolk and cream together; brush over edges of tart.
  • Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons sugar.
  • Bake until golden, 40-45 minutes. (Original recipe stated 45-50 minutes, but I found that my oven was done sooner.).
