Easy Peasy Fruit Galettes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Combine apples, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and vanilla extract together in a bowl. Place pie crust on the prepared baking sheet. Spoon apple mixture into the center of crust, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold crust over the edges of the apple mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until apples are tender and crust is golden, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Lay out one pie crust on a baking sheet lined with parchment or on a baking stone, leaving room for the second pie crust next to it.
• Mix together the sliced peaches with half the blueberries, 2 tablespoons of the flour and 2 tablespoons of the sugar in a bowl. Pour over one pie crust leaving a 1-inch border. Fold up the uncovered border over the edge of the fruit and pinch into pleats. Sprinkle the crust and fruit filling with 3 tablespoons of turbinado (or raw) sugar.
• Lay out the second pie crust on the baking sheet. Mix together the sliced strawberries, the rest of the blueberries, 2 tablespoons of flour and 2 tablespoons of sugar in the bowl. Pour over the second pie crust and form the galette the same as the first. Sprinkle with 3 tablespoons of turbinado sugar.
• Bake in preheated oven until crust is lightly browned, 12 to 14 minutes. Sprinkle with more sugar if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• All Butter Pasty - mix all dry ingredients together with cubed butter (2 minutes).
• Add water slowly until combined, wrap in plastic wrap shaped in a disc and place in fridge.
• Roll out pasty to 1/8 inch and cut into circle, size of your choosing.
• Place a small amount of brown sugar and flour on pastry bottom.
• Cut fruit and place in the center over your brown sugar and flour mixture, leaving an edge of pastry to fold up around your fruit.
• Top fruit with sugar, just enough to lightly cover.
• Beat egg and heavy cream in a bowl and brush edges of pastry with mixture.
• Fold up edges over the fruit, pleating as you make your away around.
• Brush the top with your egg and heavy cream mixture.
• Place in preheated 400 degree oven for 50-60 minutes.
• Once out of the oven, heat up your apricot jelly and brush over fruit for a shiny finish.

Steps:

• In a food processor fitted with a steel blade, or in a large bowl, pulse or mix together flour, sugar and salt. In a measuring cup, lightly beat the egg, then add just enough cream to get to 1/3 cup. Lightly whisk the egg and cream together.
• Add butter to flour mixture and pulse or use a pastry cutter or your fingers to break up the butter. If using a food processor, do not over-process; you need chickpea-size chunks of butter. Drizzle the egg mixture (up to 1/4 cup) over the dough and pulse or stir until it just starts to come together but is still mostly large crumbs. Mix in lemon juice and zest if using.
• Put dough on lightly floured counter and pat it together to make one uniform piece. Flatten into a disk, wrap in plastic and chill for 2 hours, or up to 3 days.
• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Roll the dough out to a 12-inch round (it can be ragged). Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper and chill while preparing the filling.
• Toss together fruit, all but a tablespoon of sugar, the salt, the lemon juice and zest, and the cornstarch. Use more cornstarch for juicy stone fruit and less for blueberries, raspberries and figs. Pile fruit on the dough circle, leaving a 1 1/2-inch border. Gently fold the pastry over the fruit, pleating to hold it in (sloppy is fine). Brush pastry generously with leftover egg and cream mixture. Sprinkle remaining sugar on the crust.
• Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, until the filling bubbles up vigorously and the crust is golden. Cool for at least 20 minutes on wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
