Ingredients

Scale

 

Crust:

  • 2 C AP Flour
  • ½ C Cake Flour
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 4 TBSP Granulated Sugar
  • Zest of 1 Lemon
  • 16 TBSP Cold Butter, Grated
  • 1/2 C Ricotta
  • 34 TBSP Ice Water

 

Filling:

  • 4 Cups fresh, diced peaches (I used white and yellow)
  • 4 Tbsp Granulated sugar
  • 3 Tbsp Corn Starch
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ½ Lemon (juiced)
  • pinch of salt

 

Egg Wash:

  • One egg, 1 TBSP water – blend

 

 

Instructions

 

For Crust, combine flours, salt, sugar, and zest together. Cut in butter, until mixture resembles sand. Add Ricotta, blend. Add ice water as needed until crust comes together. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.

 

When ready to assemble galette, preheat oven to 400*

 

Place filling ingredients into a non-reactive pan and simmer on medium heat until thickened. Set aside.

 

Roll out crust on floured surface, place on parchment lined baking sheet. Place filling in center of crust dough, then carefully bring up sides of crust over the filling, leaving an open center for the filling to show.

 

Bake for 30 minutes at 400* until golden. I add the egg wash right before the galette is finished, for the final 7 minutes or so, then sprinkle additional sugar on top. You can do egg wash right at the beginning if you desire!
