Scale
Crust
- 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour, weighed in grams or spooned and leveled
- 1 tablespoon (12 g) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon (6 g) salt
- 12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) (175 g) unsalted butter, cut into tablespoons and frozen for 20 minutes
- 5-7 tablespoons (74-103 ml) ice water
Strawberry Rhubarb Filling
- 2 cups strawberries, diced (fresh or frozen, not thawed)
- 2 cups rhubarb, diced (fresh or frozen, not thawed)
- 1/2 cup (100 g) light brown sugar, packed
- 2 tablespoons (24 g) granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons (16 g) corn starch
Optional Egg Wash + Sugar
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1 teaspoon water
- 1/4 cup turbinado or demerara sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the crust: In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the frozen butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough just comes together. Chill for 15 minutes.
- Prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, mix strawberries, rhubarb, brown sugar, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and corn starch. Toss gently to coat.
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/8-inch thick. Cut into 4–6 inch circles for individual galettes.
- Place a spoonful of the fruit filling in the center of each dough circle, leaving a 1–2 inch border.
- Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, pleating as needed to create a rustic edge.
- Optional: Brush edges with egg wash and sprinkle with turbinado or demerara sugar.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbly.
- Allow galettes to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Use frozen fruit directly to prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
- Adjust sugar based on the sweetness of your fruit.
- Galettes can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for up to 2 days.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
