What is Strawberry Galette?
Galette is a flat round cake of pastry topped with fresh stawberries. It is French pastry that is similar to a tart or a pie. It is absolutely divine served warm with scoop of ice cream on top.
What can I use in a Galette?
I like to use fresh berries ( strawberries, blueberries or raspberries). But you can make both sweet and savory galettes with any seasonal fruits and vegetables. They will be delicious, as well. Just use this dough recipe and make any filling.
How to prepare dough for Strawberry Galette?
In the bowl of a food processor, pulse together flour, sugar, pinch of salt and cold butter. Add cold milk and pulse again. The dough should be pea-sized and resemble wet sand. Shape the dough into disk, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30-45 minutes.
Tip from Marina: I usually make pie dough the night before. You can keep it in the refrigerator up to 2 days or in the freezer for up to 6 months. It is always good to have some dough on hand. You can double or triple this dough recipe.
How to make filling
Combine granulated sugar and corn starch first. Add mixture to sliced strawberries, gently mix, and set aside.
Remove the dough from the refrigerator and place on a sheet of parchment paper. Starting at the center of the dough, roll it out with a rolling pan into circle. This recipe makes 2 8-inch galettes.
Preheat oven to 375F (190C).
Place the parchment paper with the dough on a baking sheet. Add the filling to the center of the dough, living a 2-inch border. Gently fold the edges of the dough over the strawberries, overlapping the dough as necessary. Press gently to seal the edges.
Using pastry brush, brush the crust of the galette edges with the egg yolk and sprinkle with sugar.
Bake for 25-30 min or when the dough is golden and crisp. Allow to cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before slicing.
Serve with ice cream, optional.
