Blueberry Lemon Gallette

Course Dessert

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ c. all-purpose flour
  • 9 T. chilled butter
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • 4 T. Cold Water
  • 5 cups blueberries
  • 2 tsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp lemon zest
  • 1 T cornstarch
  • Egg wash
  • 2 T milk
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 1 T. coarse sugar for sprinkling

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Add flour and salt to a large bowl or food processor. Mix in 1 T. chunks of butter and work together or pulse until well-blended.
  • Add one tablespoon of water at a time and keep working the dough until all the water has been added.
  • Form into a large bowl and refrigerate until ready for an hour or until you are ready to use.
  • Add blueberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon zest to a large bowl, set aside.
  • Lay dough on a floured surface or on wax paper, flatten with your hands first, then roll out with a rolling pin to a large circle.
  • Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined sheet pan.
  • Place blueberries in the center of the dough and working in small sections begin to fold the dough from the outer edge to the center, so there is about a two-inch overlap of dough over the berries. There should be a small circle in the middle of uncovered berries.
  • In a small bowl, beat one egg and then add the milk and beat for another minute.
  • Brush the egg wash on the dough and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
  • Bake in a 400-degree oven for 1 hour or until the bottom and top are evenly browned.
  • Allow to cool for 15 minutes. Serve warm or cold.
