Best Strawberry Rhubarb Galette Recipes

RHUBARB ALMOND GALETTE WITH STRAWBERRY WHIPPED CREAM

Steps:

• For the galette: Shred the frozen butter in a food processor fitted with the shredding disc or on the large holes of a box grater. Place the shredded butter back in the freezer.
• Whisk together the flour, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Add the frozen shredded butter to the dry ingredients and toss together with your hands to evenly distributed. Add the 1/4 cup ice water. Begin folding the dough with the palms of your hands to incorporate the water. Continue adding the remaining water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough just comes together when squeezed. Be careful not to overwork. Transfer the dough to a sheet of plastic wrap, press into a disc and wrap tightly. Refrigerate at least 2 hours. The dough can be made 1 day ahead.
• Arrange a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
• Lightly flour your work surface. Roll the chilled dough disc out to about 14 inches in diameter. Roll up the dough disc on the rolling pin and carefully transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
• Mix together the rhubarb, sugar, salt, vanilla and cornstarch in a large bowl. Set aside.
• Place the almond paste between two 12-inch pieces of parchment and roll out to a disc about 10 inches in diameter.
• Remove the dough disc from the refrigerator. Remove one sheet of parchment from the almond paste disc. Center and flip the almond paste disc on top of the dough disc, then peel off the second sheet of parchment.
• Sprinkle the almond flour over the almond paste (this will help keep the bottom crust from getting soggy). Mound the rhubarb filling in the center of the dough and spread until it completely covers the almond paste. Fold the edges of the dough up and over, making sure the filling is still visible in the center. Brush the dough with the beaten egg, then sprinkle the turbinado sugar and sliced almonds.
• Bake until the dough is golden brown and the filling is bubbling, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour.
• For the strawberry whipped cream: Pulse the freeze-dried strawberries in a food processor into a fine powder. Add the heavy whipping cream and confectioners' sugar and process until medium-stiff peaks form, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Serve the galette with the Strawberry Whipped Cream.

STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB GALETTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Stack the two discs of dough on a lightly floured surface and roll into a disc about 12 inches wide. Transfer to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Set aside.
• Toss together the rhubarb, strawberries, cornstarch and 1/2 cup granulated sugar in a medium bowl until combined. Set aside. Roll out the almond paste into a 10-inch circle.
• Place the almond paste on the dough. Top evenly with the strawberry-rhubarb filling, leaving a 2-inch border around the edges. Fold the dough edges toward the center of the galette, up and over the edges of the filling, overlapping as needed.
• Whisk together the egg yolk and 1 teaspoon water in a small bowl. Brush on the edges of the galette and sprinkle with the almonds and remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar.
• Bake until the filling is bubbly and the edges are nicely browned, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving with whipped cream or ice cream.

STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB GALETTE WITH BUCKWHEAT CRUST

Steps:

• Dough:
• Whisk all-purpose and buckwheat flours, sugar, and salt in a large bowl to combine. Add butter and work into dry ingredients with your hands, mashing it into big flat pieces and smooshing it between your palms into the flour, until you have pea- and nickel-size pieces.
• Drizzle 1/4 cup ice water over mixture and rake it in with your fingers until evenly dispersed. Squeeze clumps with your hands to moisten until a shaggy dough forms, then turn out onto a work surface.
• Gather dough together, pushing and working it into a ball, then flattening it, until only a few dry spots remain. Pat into a 3/4"-thick square. Using a bench scraper or knife, divide dough into 4 pieces. Stack pieces on top of one another, placing any unincorporated dry bits in between layers, and press down to combine. Form dough into a 3/4"-thick disk and wrap tightly in plastic. Chill until firm, at least 2 hours and up to 3 days.
• Filling and assembly:
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Roll out dough on a well-floured surface to a 14" round, rotating dough and tossing more flour underneath as needed to keep it from sticking. Transfer dough to a large parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet (most galettes will spring a leak at the creases of the pastry, even for pros). Place rhubarb, strawberries, cornstarch, and 1/3 cup sugar in a medium bowl. Scrape in vanilla seeds and discard pod; toss ingredients to evenly distribute.
• Mound filling in center of dough, making sure to scoop up all the sugar and cornstarch in bowl, and spread out, leaving a 2" border around edges. Fold dough up and over filling, overlapping slightly. Brush dough with egg and sprinkle dough and filling generously with sugar.
• Bake galette until filling is bubbling and crust is deeply browned, 40-50 minutes. Let cool slightly. Serve topped with whipped cream.
