Vickys Strawberry & Blueberry Galette, GF DF EF SF NF step by step
- This makes enough pastry for 2 galettes so halve the dough and freeze the rest for another time or cut the pastry ingredients in half. I used about 450g of pastry in this galette.
- Sift together the flours then add the salt, sugar and xanthan gum and mix together.
- Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
- Start adding the water slowly until the dough begins to come together. Using more or less water is fine. The dough shouldn't be wet.
- Roll into a ball, wrap with clingfilm and refrigerate for half an hour.
- Alternatively use any other shortcrust recipe or pre-made pastry you prefer.
- Preheat the oven to gas 6 / 200C / 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Flour a surface and roll out the dough into a rough circle. It should be around 14" in diameter.
- Carefully drape the dough over your rolling pin and use that to place the dough on your baking tray.
- Let it rest there while you prepare the filling.
- Take the tops off the strawberries and cut them into chunks, quarters or slightly smaller is good.
- Put the jam in a dish with the strawberry pieces and blueberries and mix together gently.
- Spoon the mixture into the middle of the pastry leaving a good few inches gap from the edge.
- Start folding the pastry over the filling. It shouldn't reach the middle but around a third or halfway in.
- Pinch the pastry together where it wants to fold, you can make a pretty pattern if you like or give it a more rustic appearance.
- Brush the top of the pastry with a little 'butter' or a spray of oil and sprinkle with a little mixed spice. Put in the oven to bake for 35 - 40 minutes until the pastry is golden. Some of the juices will probably leak out but this is fine.
- Remove from the oven and let the galette rest for 15 - 30 minutes.
- Dust with some powdered sugar and garnish with some fresh berries to serve.
- Try other fillings! Strawberry & rhubarb, apple & blackberry, serve with custard or cream, have it your way!.
