Ingredients

  • Dough
  • 125g all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 33g sugar

  • 113g cold unsalted butter (cubed)

  • 52ml cold ice water

  • Filling
  • 2 peaches (cutted)

  • 10g sugar

  • 20g butter (melted)

  • A pinch of ground cinnamon

  • Assemble
  • An egg (for the egg wash)

  • 1 tsp of sugar

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Dough
  • In a food processor mix together the flour, salt, and sugar (You can also mix it in a large bowl using a pastry cutter or two forks).
  • Add the cubed butter and mix until the mixture resembles small peas.
  • Add cold water and mix it into the crust mixture.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and form the dough into a round disc with your hands, lightly flouring it if necessary.
  • Wrap the dough in plastic and leave it in the fridge for 1 hour or overnight.
  • Filling
  • In a bowl add the sugar, melted butter, cinnamon and peaches and stir.
  • Assemble
  • Preheat the oven to 375F/190C.
  • Transfer the dough to a large lightly floured piece of waxed paper/parchment paper.
  • Roll the dough out on the piece of waxed paper into a circle about 13’’/33cm in diameter and transfer it to the baking sheet (the circle might be wider than your baking sheet but that’s okay, cause you’ll be folding it over the filling).
  • Sprinkle some flour over the dough, and arrange the peach filling on the dough (leave 3 inches around the edge uncovered because you’ll be folding the dough later).
  • Fold the edges of the dough up and over the peaches.
  • Brush the folded dough with the egg wash and sprinkle sugar on top.
  • Bake for 35-45 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
  • Take the galette out of the oven, and enjoy!
