Berry Galette
Ingredients
2 pears, peeled and diced
¾ cup blackberries
¾ cup strawberries
¾ cup blueberries
⅓ cup white sugar
1 tbsp cornstarch
1 tsp cinnamon
¼ cup water
½ lemon, zested and juices
1 egg (optional)
1 roll premade puff pastry (or can be homemade)
Directions
- Heat a medium sauce pot with pears, berries, sugar, cinnamon, cornstarch, and lemon juice, and stir to combine. Once bubbling and pears are tender, remove from heat and set aside to cool.
- Preheat the oven to 425˚F and prepare a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough until it is roughly 12×12 inches. It does not need to be a perfect circle.
- Transfer the dough to the baking sheet and pour the mixed berry and pear filling overtop leaving roughly two inches around the edge.
- Fold the dough with just the edge of the berries, pinching any pieces sticking out until the edges are smooth.
- For an extra shine, egg wash by whisking together one egg yolk with water. Brush it on the edges of the pie crust.
- Bake at 425˚F for 25-30 minutes, until the crust is golden and the berry mixture is bubbling.
- Let the galette cool on a cooling rack for at least an hour before slicing. Serve with vanilla ice cream (optional).
