Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 Tbsp granulated sugar
- 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
- 8 Tbsp unsalted butter, very cold
- 6 Tbsp ice water
- 1 egg, beaten for egg wash
- 1 Tbsp coarse sugar
- 1 lb peaches, sliced
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 Tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 Tbsp unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough: In a mixing bowl, combine 1 1/3 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of fine sea salt. Cut in the 8 tablespoons of very cold unsalted butter until the mixture becomes crumbly. Gradually add 6 tablespoons of ice water until a dough forms.
- Chill the Dough: Shape the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
- Prepare the Filling: Toss the sliced peaches with 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon of flour, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract. Let it sit for 15-20 minutes.
- Roll Out the Dough: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the chilled dough into a 12-inch circle.
- Assemble the Galette: Spoon the peach mixture into the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold the edges over the filling.
- Finish the Galette: Dot the filling with small pieces of remaining butter, brush the crust with the egg wash, and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
- Bake and Serve: Bake for 30-35 minutes until the crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
