Best Rustic Fruit Galette Recipes

RUSTIC FRUIT GALETTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Combine apples, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and vanilla extract together in a bowl. Place pie crust on the prepared baking sheet. Spoon apple mixture into the center of crust, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold crust over the edges of the apple mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until apples are tender and crust is golden, about 30 minutes.

RUSTIC FRUIT TART (FREE FORM GALETTE)

Steps:

• In a stand mixer, combine dry ingredients for crust and stir to mix. On low speed, add butter until the flour is crumbly and the butter is the size of peas.
• Mix egg yolk and milk together then add to flour mixture until just combined (about 15 seconds).
• Remove the mixture from the bowl and put on a floured surface. Knead quickly until it just comes together. The dough will be dotted with butter spots throughout. Tightly wrap in plastic wrap, refrigerate and let it rest for 15-20 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• In the meantime, in a large bowl toss together ingredients for the fruit filling; set aside.
• Remove pastry ball from refrigerator and place on a floured surface or a floured Silpat. (Just rolling between 2 pieces of plastic wrap may be easier.) Place the plastic wrap on top of the dough ball and proceed to roll out until approximately 12 inches across and 1/8 inch thick. Transfer crust to a baking sheet.
• Ladle filling in the center, leaving a few inches of dough around the edges and pull over the free edges on top of the fruit filling leaving the center exposed. Brush the dough edges with egg wash and top with sugar in the raw or brown sugar.
• Cook for 55 minutes or until crust is browned and the fruit is bubbling.

RUSTIC CREAM CHEESE & FRUIT GALETTE

Steps:

• 1. Mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, 2 Tbsp. of the cornstarch, egg yolk, and 1 tsp. of the almond extract.
• 2. In separate bowl, mix fruit, 2 Tbsp. of sugar, remaining 1 Tbsp. of cornstarch, and 1 tsp. of almond extract.
• 3. On a baking sheet or pie plate (better for containing drips and transporting), unfurl pie crust. Spread cream cheese mixture, leaving a 2" boarder. Top with fruit mix. Fold pastry border over the fruit. Brush dough perimeter with egg white and sprinkle with sugar.
• 4. Bake at 400 degrees F, about 30 min., until golden brown and bubbly. Cool slightly. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

• Note: Substitute pears or peaches for the apples, if desired. A 1/2 cup of blueberries, blackberries, or raspberries can also be added.
• Note: Apple pie spice can be substituted for the cinnamon, if desired.
