About this recipe
Flaky crust and a sweet, fresh filling. This Strawberry Galette is begging to be made and eaten and brings a wonderful rustic touch.
Ingredients
Galette
260g plain flour
100g caster sugar
125g unsalted butter
1tsp salt
50ml water
1 egg yolk (for egg wash)
25g demerara sugar (for sprinkling)
Filling
225g strawberries
20g caster sugar
Ingredients
Instructions
- To make the filling, mix all the ingredients together in a medium bowl and cook for 5 mins until softened but still holding shape.
- For the galette, in a large bowl, combine flour and butter, by rubbing the butter and flour together until it resembles medium breadcrumbs (about pea-sized). Add sugar, salt then ice-cold water and knead it all together briefly, until the mixture forms a dough. Roll the dough into a small ball, flatten it into a thick, disc-like shape and wrap it in some cling film. Place in the fridge for an hour.
- Preheat the oven to 180C and line a baking tray with some baking parchment.
- Roll the dough on a lightly floured and sugared surface into a circle (roughly about 30 cm). Transfer the dough to a baking tray, it's important to do this step now as once the strawberries have been added it will be difficult to transport them to the baking tray.
- Spoon out the strawberries and juices into the middle of the dough, leaving about a 5cm border, if you like a thicker base leave a larger border around. Gently fold the edges of the dough over the fruit and press to seal. Brush the dough with an egg wash and sprinkle with some demerara sugar. Bake for about 25 minutes until the crust is golden brown.
