Ingredients

• 180 grams All-purpose flour
• 50 grams Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 115 grams Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
• 3 tablespoons Ice water
• 300 grams Blueberries
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 Egg (for egg wash)
• 2 tablespoons Turbinado sugar (for sprinkling)

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the flour, 25 grams of sugar, and salt. Mix to combine.

Step 2

Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Gradually add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and gently mix until the dough just comes together. Form the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Step 4

While the dough chills, preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 5

In a medium bowl, combine the blueberries, remaining 25 grams of sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Toss gently to coat the blueberries evenly and set aside.

Step 6

On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a circle about 30 cm (12 inches) in diameter. Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet.

Step 7

Spoon the blueberry filling onto the center of the dough, leaving a 5 cm (2-inch) border around the edges.

Step 8

Gently fold the edges of the dough over the filling, pleating as needed, to create a rustic edge. The center should remain exposed.

Step 9

In a small bowl, beat the egg and brush it over the exposed edges of the dough. Sprinkle the turbinado sugar over the crust for added texture and sweetness.

Step 10

Bake the galette in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the blueberry filling is bubbling.

Step 11

Allow the galette to cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving. Slice and enjoy warm or at room temperature, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
