Bluebery and Pear Galette

(15)
"Pear and blueberry galette made with a crispy, buttery, gluten-free crust and topped with my ice-cream. ⠀ I used pears because they are in season here in Australia, but any fruit works here. Apples, peaches, berries are all great options."

ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cup gluten free flour
  • 1 tablespoon coconut sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup butter, chilled
  • 1/4 cold water
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 pears, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup blueberries
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon sugar

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • Step 2

    Place the flour, sugar, salt and the butter into a bowl and, using a pastry cutter, cut the butter in small pieces. Slowly drizzle in ice water, gently incorporating with a fork.

  • Step 3

    Squeeze the dough together into a few handfuls. If it sticks, continue to form the dough into a disc. If still too dry, add another tablespoon of water. Cover and chill the dough for an hour in the fridge.

  • Step 4

    Flour your surface and roll the dough into a large circle, about 12” in diameter. Transfer to the parchment lined baking sheet before adding fruit.

  • Step 5

    Add the honey to the center of the dough, layer the pear slices and blueberries. Fold the edges of the pie crust towards the center, leaving a small circle of exposed fruit. Lightly whisk the egg together with a splash of water. Brush the egg wash over the crust and sprinkle with sugar.

  • Step 6

    Bake until crust is firm and golden, about 35 minutes. Allow to cool for 15 minutes before serving. Enjoy with some ice cream!
