Recipes:
Strawberry Galette:
Crust:
1 1/2 cups four
1/4 cup almond flour
2 tbsp powdered sugar
pinch of salt
1 tbsp lemon zest
1 1/2 stick cold butter (grated)
1 tsp white vinegar
2 tbsp ice water
Combine flour, sugar, salt and lemon zest. Add grated cold butter and using a fork mix and cut the butter until the mixture forms chickpea-size pieces. Drizzle the vinegar and cold water over the flour/butter mixture. Using a wooden spoon or your hands mix the dough just until combined. Transfer the dough onto plastic wrap and knead the dough for 1 minute so that everything comes together. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
Cream cheese filling:
2 oz cream cheese
2 oz mascarpone (use more cream cheese if you can’t find this)
1/4 cup sugar
1 small egg
1/2 tsp lemon zest
1/2 tsp vanilla (optional)
Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Set aside.
Strawberry Filling:
4 cups strawberries (quartered)
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 tbsp cornstarch
fresh mint (optional)
Combine all ingredients and set it aside
Egg wash:
1 small egg
1 tsp oil
Preheat the oven to 380 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a circle about 1/4 inch thick. Transfer dough onto a piece of parchment paper.
Spread the cream cheese mixture on the bottom of the dough. Leave a 2 inch border around the edge. Add the strawberry filling on top. Fold the edges of the dough over the strawberries. Brush edges with the egg wash and sprinkle with sugar if desired. Bake the galette until golden brown (around 40-50 minutes)
