Peach Cherry Galette Recipes

CHERRY AND PEACH GALETTE

Steps:

• Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Butter a baking sheet with 1 tablespoon butter. Unfold 1 sheet puff pastry on a floured surface. Beat the egg with 1 tablespoon water and brush over the dough. Unfold the other sheet of puff pastry and lay it on top; press the sheets together with a rolling pin, then roll out into a 14-inch square. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes. (Refrigerate the leftover egg wash for brushing the galette.)
• Combine the sugar, allspice, vanilla, lemon zest and lemon juice in a large bowl; transfer 2 tablespoons of the mixture to a small bowl and set aside for sprinkling. Add the cherries, peaches and 3 tablespoons flour to the remaining sugar mixture and toss.
• Trim the edges of the pastry with a pizza wheel or sharp knife to make a 12-inch round. Spoon the cherry mixture in the center, leaving a 2-inch border. Cut the remaining 1 tablespoon butter into small pieces and scatter on top. Fold in the pastry edges over the filling, pleating as needed.
• Bake the galette until puffed and golden, about 20 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Remove the galette from the oven, brush the crust with the reserved egg wash and sprinkle with the reserved sugar mixture. Return the galette to the oven and bake until the juices thicken and the pastry is cooked through, 30 to 45 more minutes (depending on the juiciness of the cherries). Transfer to a rack and let cool at least 10 minutes so the filling sets.

MATT'S CHERRY GALETTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375. Roll out dough on a lightly floured work surface to roughly an 11-inch circle. Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Mix the pitted cherries with 1/4 cup sugar, salt, and liqueur.
• Spoon the seasoned cherries over the dough and leave a 2-inch border. Drop pieces of butter over the cherries and fold the edges of the dough over, pressing lightly.
• Whisk the cream or milk and the egg yolk together and lightly brush the edges of the crust.
• Sprinkle with the remaining tablespoon of sugar and then bake for 40-45 minutes. Ovens will vary, bake until golden.
• Top each serving with a dollop of mascarpone and a sprinkle of black pepper.

CHERRY PEACH PANTRY GALETTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet or large rimmed baking pan with parchment paper and lay the round of pie crust on top.
• Toss the peaches and cherries with the cornstarch, vanilla, cinnamon and 1/3 cup sugar in a bowl until well combined. Mound the fruit mixture in the center of the dough round and spread slightly, leaving a 1 1/2-inch border. Fold the edges over the fruit, pleating as necessary. Whisk the egg and mix with a tablespoon of water. Using a pastry brush, brush the egg wash on the exposed crust. Sprinkle the remaining tablespoon sugar over the top of the fruit. Bake until the crust is golden brown all over and the fruit juices are thick and bubbling, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool slightly and serve warm or at room temperature.

PEACH-CHERRY GALETTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Unroll the pie crust on a large baking sheet. Place the peach slices in the center of the crust, leaving a 2-inch border around the edge. Sprinkle the cherries over the peaches, and then top with the sugar and cinnamon. Pull up the sides of crust slightly and roll over towards the center, covering the filling by 1 to 2 inches. Bake until the crust is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

STONE-FRUIT GALETTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil, then parchment. Stir together fruit, granulated sugar, lemon juice, salt, and cornstarch.
• Roll out pate brisee into a 13-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick, on a lightly floured surface. Transfer to baking sheet. Arrange fruit in center, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold over border to enclose fruit, leaving center open. Brush crust with egg, and sprinkle with sanding sugar.
• Bake until golden brown and bubbling in center, about 1 hour 10 minutes. Let cool on baking sheet 10 minutes, then slide galette on parchment onto a wire rack. Let cool completely. Serve with whipped cream.
