Nectarine Blackberry Galette | LetsEatCake.com

If you’re looking for something to make in a pinch, these Nectarine Blackberry Galette minis might just be the thing. Because when I made them, well, I was awfully short on time as a little over a week ago, I was doing the final preparations for my trip to Tulum, Mexico. But I also wanted to make something so I could share a recipe with you before my plane took off at 7AM Friday morning!

So, before work on Thursday, I created these Nectarine Blackberry Galette minis. I love galettes — rustic freeform pies filled with any type of fresh fruit you desire — and the fact that they don’t have to look “perfect” when they’re done makes them all that much easier when you’re in a rush.

Now, truth be told, the galettes take about 2 hours, but most of that is waiting for the dough to chill in the fridge or waiting for them to bake in the oven. There isn’t very much active time at all. Now, you can make a galette by hand, but as I might have mentioned, I was in a little bit of a rush, so I turned to my handy dandy food processor.

To make a galette quickly, add all of your dry ingredients and pulse until they’re combined. Then dice your butter and add it all at once, and pulse again until the mixture is coarse and crumbly. Then, pour in 1/4 cup of ice water and run the food processor for 5-10 seconds. Being mindful of the blade, carefully squeeze together the dough and if it holds together, it’s done! If not, add up to 1/4 cup more ice water, one tablespoon at a time. You don’t want the dough to be wet or sticky, so go slow.

Once the galette dough is how you want it, remove the blade, use your hands (or a spatula) to make sure the dough is evenly mixed, and then place it in the middle of a flour dusted, parchment-lined cutting board or counter. Divide the dough into however many galettes you would like. Usually I just make one galette, but I divided the dough into quarters this time so I would have four mini galettes. Roll each out until it’s about 1/4″ thick, wrap in plastic, and place in the fridge for 30 minutes.

While the dough is chilling, mix 2 cups (give or take) of fruit with 1/4 cup of sugar and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch. This draws some of the juice out of the fruit and helps to make your galette even juicier without making it soggy. Win win!

Then, preheat the oven to 375°F and remove the galette dough from the fridge and unwrap each, placing them onto a parchment-lined baking sheet as you do. Then portion 1/2 cup of fruit onto the middle of the first galette and gently fold the edges towards the middle. Don’t worry if the dough doesn’t cover much of the fruit. It’s not supposed to. Repeat with the other three galettes.

To get the shiny, golden brown crust, I whisked an egg and brushed it onto the dough right before they went into the oven. I also added some raw ginger sugar as I love ginger and thought it would be a nice complement in both texture and flavor to the nectarines and blackberries. Bake the gallettes for about 30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.

You miiiiight have noticed that this recipe didn’t go up in May as originally intended. That’s because while I was able to make the galettes and get to work on time, I ran out of time to write this post, select and size the images, and get more a few hours of sleep before my flight! I hope you can forgive me! I can’t wait to find out how your galettes turn out. Remember, you don’t have to make nectarine and blackberry galettes. You can make them with any fruit you want! Tell me how it goes in the comments!

    Nectarines and blackberries are perfect together in this! This is just begging to be eaten with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream on top or by itself paired with a crisp rose! This is summer dessert at its best – yum!

    I’ve had a lot of nectarine and blueberry desserts but never blackberry! It looks absolutely divine and I feel it should be a far more common combination! A lovely late summer dessert!

    I’ve never combined nectarines and blackberries, but it’s such a great idea! The mini part is great too, no need to share 🙂

    So much YES!!!! The egg wash is everything because it makes the crust crispy to contrast the soft, naked fruit, Now my stomach is talking to me!!!
