Servings: 1 galette
Equipment
- Mixing bowls
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Large baking sheet
- Parchment paper
- Rolling Pin
Ingredients
- 1 sourdough pie crust (recipe calls for 2 but it can be cut in half)
- 600 grams (3 cups) mixed berries blueberries, blackberries, raspberries
- 50 grams (1/4 cup) sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
For the egg wash
- 1 egg
- coarse sugar for topping the crust optional
Instructions
- Ensure the sourdough galette dough has been chilled for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Start by placing the washed and dried berries into a bowl. Add the sugar, cornstarch, & lemon juice and toss to combine.
- Allow the fruit to sit while you roll out the dough.
- Remove the dough from the fridge and let it sit for 15 minutes. On a floured surface roll it into a 12-14 inch circle and then place it on the parchment paper lined pan.
- Optional: Place a 10-inch dinner plate on the dough to create a light marking of where the filling will be placed. Also, trim the edges for a more “perfect” circle OR leave them rustic. Either is fine.
- Using a slotted spoon, place the fruit into the outlined circle (leaving the residual juice in the bowl). There should be a 2-inch border.
- Fold the edges over the fruit, overlapping the sides as you go. If the dough is not holding its shape, place it in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to firm up.
- Make the egg wash and brush the galette dough using a pastry brush. Optional: sprinkle some coarse sugar on the dough for that finishing touch.
- Bake the sourdough berry galette for 35-45 minutes or until a deep golden brown.
- Allow the galette to rest for at least 1 hour. The fruit filling needs to firm up before cutting into it.
- Sourdough berry galette pairs wonderfully with homemade whipped cream, ice cream, or topped with powdered sugar.
- Sourdough berry galette lasts 2-3 days in the fridge, wrapped tightly.
Notes
Berries: Fresh or frozen berries can be used, but do not allow the frozen berries to thaw.
