Chocolate Raspberry Galette

There’s something effortlessly elegant about a galette. Rustic and free-form, it doesn’t try to be perfect, yet always manages to impress. The chocolate raspberry galette is a beautiful twist on this classic French pastry. It brings together rich, velvety chocolate and vibrant, tart raspberries in a flaky, golden crust that’s as inviting as it is delicious.

What sets this dessert apart is its balance of flavors. The raspberries bring a bright, slightly tangy note that cuts through the richness of the chocolate, making each bite both refreshing and indulgent. The crust is crisp and buttery, folding gently over the filling like a cozy blanket. It browns beautifully in the oven and gives the galette a gorgeous, golden finish.

One of the best things about making a galette is how forgiving it is. Unlike traditional pies that require careful crimping and precise shaping, a galette welcomes imperfections. Simply roll out the dough, pile the filling in the center, and fold the edges over. It bakes into a showstopper with minimal fuss.

This chocolate raspberry galette works beautifully for any occasion. Serve it warm for a comforting treat after dinner, or let it cool and bring it to a brunch or picnic. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for a little extra decadence. The contrast between the warm, gooey center and the cool, creamy topping is irresistible.

If you’re feeling adventurous, you can experiment with different chocolates. Dark chocolate gives it a deep, intense flavor, while milk chocolate keeps things lighter and sweeter. You can also throw in a few sliced almonds or a sprinkle of sea salt to enhance the flavor even more.

At its heart, this galette is a celebration of simple ingredients coming together in the most satisfying way. It’s not about perfection, but about flavor, comfort, and joy. Whether you’re baking for yourself or sharing it with others, the chocolate raspberry galette is a dessert that feels both casual and special at the same time.

Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup cocoa powder unsweetened
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter cold and cut into small pieces
• 2 tbsp ice water
• 1 cup raspberries fresh
• 3 ounces bittersweet chocolate chopped
• 2 tbsp powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

 

• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, and salt.
• Add the cold butter to the bowl and use your fingers or a pastry cutter to cut it into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• Gradually add the ice water, a tablespoon at a time, and mix until the dough comes together. Shape the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to a circle about 12 inches in diameter. Transfer the dough to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
• Sprinkle the chopped chocolate over the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border around the edges. Top the chocolate with the raspberries.
• Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, pleating as necessary. Press gently to seal any cracks.
• Bake the galette in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
• Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
