Peach, Strawberry & Blueberry Galette

Not the best week, and I wish those lazy days of summer I keep hearing about would hurry and show up. On the upside, I baked this pie:

A galette, if you want to get technical. A free-form pie with no need for the constraints of a plate. Like those lucky girls who can spend hot days in breezy tank dresses and no bra.

Peach, Strawberry & Blueberry Galette

AuthorJulie

Yields1 Serving

1 batch pastry for a single crust pie
1/2 cup sugar
1 Tbsp. flour
pinch cinnamon or apple pie spice (optional)
2-3 peaches, diced
1/2-1 cup wee strawberries
1/2 cup blueberries

1

Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface to a 10-inch circle. (Ish.) Transfer to a parchment-lined sheet. In a bowl, stir together the sugar, flour and cinnamon. Add the fruit and toss it about to coat. Dump in a pile in the middle of the pastry, and spread it out leaving an inch border around the edge.

2

Fold the edge of the pastry up around the fruit, folding it wherever it wants to. If you like, brush the edge of the pastry with cream or milk and sprinkle with coarse sugar. Bake at 400F for 30 minutes, or until bubbly and golden.

    Those perfectly young skinny girls in flowing summer dresses and no bra can’t bake pies like you do.

    Perfect…

    I’ve been trying to get onto your Babble postings for the past 3 days and I get an error message….

    So pretty! I don’t think I’ve ever made a Galette before and I’m not sure why. It certainly seems to be much less fussy that a pie!

    I wish I was one of those girls… I’ll have to settle for eating the pie 😉 Might make me just as happy!

    Julie, I tried one of your galettes last week and the juice from the fruit ran out all over the parchment paper (thank goodness it was there!) and left the pie rather dry. Any ideas what I might have done wrong?

    Summer fruits are there just waiting for us to create delicious looking things like this. I’m hoping a couple of lazy summer days may appear this weekend. 🙂

    I’ve come to believe that galettes may actually be even more delicious than pie…there is nothing about summer food that I look forward to more than a blueberry galette (using your recipe of course Julie!).

    The picture was perfect. I could imagine sitting in the cool of the summer evening slowly dabbing into the crust and a few juicy fruit bits as I listened to the insects chirping and sipped on an iced green-tea faintly redolent of white peach.

    Made two of these yesterday. Didn’t have strawberries so used apricots instead. Yum yum! Absolutely divine and simple! Thanks!!

    We always want what we don’t have! Just think – the likes of us will never need to go for a boob job, like some of those “lucky” girls! The pie looks fab!!
