Blueberry Galette – Sweet Summer Dessert with Honey
- Rustic and visually appealing
- Easily customizable with any seasonal fruits
- Made with simple, wholesome ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pre-made pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon sugar (for sprinkling)
How to Make
To prepare your Blueberry Galette, begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large bowl, combine the fresh blueberries, honey, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Gently toss to coat the berries evenly with the liquid mixture, allowing them to marinate for about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, roll out the pie crust onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring it’s a round shape, about 12 inches in diameter. Once your blueberries are ready, pour them into the center of the pie crust, leaving about 2 inches of border. Fold the edges of the crust over the berries, pinching them slightly to hold in place. Whisk the egg in a small bowl and brush it over the crust for a golden finish. Finally, sprinkle a tablespoon of sugar over the crust before baking for about 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the blueberries are bubbly.
Tips
- For added spice, sprinkle cinnamon or nutmeg over the blueberries.
- Let the galette cool slightly before slicing to maintain its shape.
Make-Ahead
You can prepare the filling and crust separately a day in advance. Assemble and bake the galette when you’re ready to serve!
Storing
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Freezing
This galette can be frozen before baking. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and foil for up to 2 months. Bake from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the baking time.
Reheating
To reheat, simply pop it in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes or until warm.
Serving Suggestions
Serve your Blueberry Galette warm or at room temperature, preferably with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an indulgent treat.
