Raspberry Galette with Cinnamon and Almond Crumble
Servings:
- 8-10 people
Ingredients:
For the Pastry Dough:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 1/4 cup ice water
For the Raspberry Filling:
- 3 cups fresh raspberries
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
For the Cinnamon and Almond Crumble:
- 1 cup sliced almonds
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
Instructions
Make the Pastry Dough:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt.
- Add the cold butter and use a pastry blender or your fingers to work it into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add the ice water, stirring with a fork until the dough comes together in a ball.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Prepare the Raspberry Filling:
- In a medium bowl, combine the fresh raspberries and granulated sugar. Let it sit for about 15 minutes, allowing the berries to release their juice.
Make the Cinnamon and Almond Crumble:
- In a small bowl, mix together sliced almonds, cinnamon, brown sugar, and cold butter until crumbly.
Assemble and Bake the Galette:
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled pastry dough to a thickness of about 1/8 inch.
- Transfer the dough to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Spread the raspberry filling over the center of the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around it.
- Sprinkle the cinnamon and almond crumble evenly over the filling.
- Fold the edges of the pastry dough over the filling, pressing gently to seal.
- Brush the pastry crust with a little milk or beaten egg for a golden glaze.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
Notes
- This recipe makes one large galette, but you can easily halve the ingredients and make individual mini galettes.
- If using frozen raspberries, thaw them first and pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
- You can substitute fresh blueberries or strawberries for a different flavor combination.
