A peach galette is a rustic, free-form peach tart with a buttery crust, perfect for showcasing the juicy sweetness of fresh peaches in a simple yet elegant dessert.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour plus extra for dusting
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter cold, cut into cubes
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar divided
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 4-5 peaches ripe, sliced
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice freshly squeezed
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon milk for brushing
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine flour, 1 tbsp sugar, and salt. Add cold butter and mix with your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add 2-4 tablespoons of cold water, just enough to bring the dough together. Form the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the dough on a floured surface to a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a baking sheet.
- In a bowl, toss sliced peaches with remaining sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch until well coated. Arrange the peaches in the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border.
- Fold the edges of the dough over the peaches, pleating as necessary. Brush the crust with milk.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the peaches are tender and bubbly.
- Allow the galette to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
