Double Berry Galette

The 4th of July is coming up FAST! Everything edible is turning red, white and/or blue 🙂 I’m not gonna lie…I LOVE getting into the holidays. Doesn’t matter what it is, I feel it necessary to throw a party. May is the International Respect for Chickens Month. Forreals. Google it. It’s marked on my calendar.

It’s marked on yours too? NO WAY!!! It’s like one mind, you and I.

Let’s all eat chicken!!!!! 

Wait…

Anyways, I’ve had some berries and leftover pie crust loitering around my fridge for the past few days and I finally decided to slap them silly and turn them into a pie. And by pie I mean galette. And by galette I mean a fancypants-easy-to-make treat. It looks and sounds cool, but is approximately 14.2 times easier to whip up than pie. Conveniently, the berries I used were red and blue. {Holla!} So, moral of the story: I win at life.  Happy 4th, yo.

Here’s how to do it:

Berry mixture

Toss some raspberries and blueberries together with some flour, sugar and a teensy bit of salt. Really any fruit would work for this, but the 4th of July calls for blue and red! Also, you’ll need to adjust the amount of sugar and flour if your fruit seems particularly juicy or tart. Just a heads up.

Berry mixture in pie crust

Pour the berries onto a prepared pie crust leaving a 1-2 inch border. I like this recipe a lot, but the store bought ones work great as well as any other pie crust.

Forming the galette

Fold up the extra dough to create the galette. Isn’t it purdy? But wait…..THERE’S MORE!

Galette

Take some extra pie dough and cut out little stars and place them over top of the berries. Talk about patriotic 🙂

Galette

Brush all the pie crust with a little milk and bake!

Double Berry Galette

20 minutes later, you’ll be in double berry heaven….one of my favorite places 🙂

Hope you all get around to making this soon! T’was superb! Here’s the printable:

Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 pie crust unbaked, I used this recipe
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh raspberries
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar adjust based on how sweet your fruit is
  • pinch of salt
  • milk

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut about 2 tablespoons of pie dough off of the rest of the pastry and set aside. Roll out remaining pie crust just as you would to make a pie. Place pie crust on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or silicone baking mat. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, gently combine the berries with flour, sugar and salt. Pour into the center of the pie crust, spreading the berries evenly leaving a 1 1/2 inch border. Fold up the sides to create the galette.
  • Roll out remaining dough and cut out stars with small cookie cutters. Place stars over top berries.
  • Brush edges and stars with milk. Sprinkle additional sugar over top if desired.
  • Bake 20 minutes or until crust has browned and berries are bubbly. Cool at least 15 minutes before cutting. Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

    I would make an apple galette. I use to make apple pies all the time, but found galettes easier and just as delicious.

    This is such a pretty galette, Lauren! Happy Canada Day & 4th of July to you and your family.

    I’m not sure how I’ve got by without any Silpat in my baking arsenal. The first thing I’d make? Definitely my dad’s ginger cookies.

    Festive sugar cookies with red, white, and blue decorations. I’m thinking flags and some sort of firework design.

    I would make classic chocolate chip cookies, I haven’t had an oven for two months and I have been craving some since day one!

    The first thing I’d make is coconut macaroon cookies. I’d like to remove them from the baking sheet without tearing the edges. This Silpat would be the answer!!

    Galette’s have been on my bucket list for so long but you’re inspiring me to get on it! As for the giveaway, the first thing I would make is some sort of kitchen sink type bark candy.

    Thanks for the #SilpatChat today. I enjoyed it! The first thing I’d bake would be some kind of gooey dark chocolate cookie with caramel, just because I know I wouldn’t have to worry about it sticking or burning.

    Looks like a fabulous 4th of July dessert. I like to knead and roll out bread dough on my Silpats, which are getting kind of old and cracked. I wonder how long I can keep using them.

    I would bake some cookies; I usually use parchment but I hate when I don’t fit it properly to the pan and I get a wavy bottom!

    Been craving some lemon poppyseed cookies lately. I’d have to make those first.

    I follow Lauren’s Latest on Twitter and followed Silpat there as well.

    I have always wanted one of these so it’s a tough choice! probably some really gooey cookies. But the garlic bread you mentioned sounds tempting too!

    I would make french macarons. I’ve always wanted to make them but they look so hard to make and i was always afraid I would bake them and then they’d fall apart when i take them out. this would make it so much easier!

    AH! I’ve been dying for one (and should just bite the bullet, given the amount of parchment I pay for and throw out!) I would say tuilles, as they REALLY need to not stick! 🙂

    I would like to make the above tart thingy since it’s so close to July 4th!! But I would definitely try cookies on there, I see lots of recipes calling for use of the silpats.

    If I won the Silpat, the first thing I would make with it would be sweet biscuits for old-fashioned strawberry shortcake.

    This is so pretty, I think I’d make this! But that’s totally unoriginal. So are chocolate chip cookies, but they are my husband’s favorite 🙂

    I had one of these and it disappeared. I miss it. If I won one I would make my favorite sugar cookies. The bottoms get too brown without the mat!

    I neeeeeed this. I’ve wanted one forever but somehow have not got one yet. The first thing I’d make (can it be here today?!) would be chocolate brownie whoopie pies with salted carmel filling. I guess I’ll bust out the parchment :/

    Chocolate chip cookies obviously 🙂 Though this berry galette does look very tempting with all the fresh berries around these days.

    I’d make cookies and I LOVE my Silpats and could always use another. They are THE most valuable piece of baking equipment! Can’t make cookies without ’em!
