Berry Balsamic Galette

Berry Balsamic Galette

Ingredients

Crust:

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
  • 8 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
  • 1/4 cup greek yogurt
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons cold water

Filling:

  • 2 cups berries or other fruit (I have made with peaches and a blueberry raspberry combo- all were great!)
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoons balsamic vinegrette
  • Pinch of salt

Glaze:

  • 1 egg yolk
  • coarse sugar for sprinkling

Instructions

    For the crust:

    1. In a large bowl combine the flour, salt and sugar.
    2. Add in the butter and use your hands or a pastry cutter to break the butter pieces down until they are pea sized.
    3. Into the middle of the bowl add the yogurt and cold water (1 tablespoon at a time while you mix.) Gently knead the dough together until it is mostly cohesive and smooth. (It can be a bit scraggly.)
    4. Form the dough into a thick disk and wrap with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 30 minutes.

    For the filling:

    1. Toss the berries with the sugar, cornstarch, balsamic and salt. Set aside.

    To assemble:

    1. Roll the dough out to a 14 inch circle with parchment underneath. Gently spoon the fruit into the center, leaving a 2 inch border, and fold the edges in and over each other to enclose the fruit .
    2. Transfer to a cookie sheet, brush with egg yolk and sprinkle with sugar.
    3. Bake at 400F for 30 minutes or until golden.
