Worthy of a Special Occasion

The recipe makes two galettes, so guests can have a piece for dessert and one to take home. If you use fresh peaches, a lot of juice will ooze out, but it won't ruin your crust.

Yield: 2 galettes, 16 servings (serving size: 1 wedge)

Ingredients

  • 1  (15-ounce) package refrigerated pie dough (such as Pillsbury)
  • 6  cups  fresh or frozen peeled and sliced peaches, thawed
  • 1  cup  fresh or frozen blueberries, thawed
  • 1/4  cup  sugar
  • 2  tablespoons  apricot preserves, melted and divided
  • 1  tablespoon  turbinado or granulated sugar

Preparation

Preheat oven to 425°.

Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper. Roll 1 dough portion into a 12-inch circle; place on foil. Combine peaches, blueberries, and 1/4 cup sugar. Arrange half of peach mixture in center of dough, leaving a 3-inch border. Fold edges of dough toward center, pressing gently to seal (dough will only partially cover peach mixture). Brush half of melted preserves over peach mixture and edges of dough.

Bake at 425° for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350° (do not remove galette from oven); bake an additional 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Repeat procedure with remaining dough, peach mixture, and preserves. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of sugar. Serve warm or at room temperature. Cut each galette into 8 wedges.

I should have read your reviews. Used fresh peaches, straight from the orchard, and blueberries straight from the store. Added some cinnamon to the fruit. The recipe definitely should have a binder/thickener of some sort -- had to "mop up" the juices twice during cooking.09/14/09

As previously suggested, I brushed the inside of my pie crust with an egg wash and sprinkled it with tapioca to prevent juice leakage. I also mixed 1-2 Tbs of tapioca into my fruit before putting it into the pie crust and left off the apricot preserves. It was delicious and my guests were impressed!04/28/09
