Strawberry Galette
Strawberry Galette is the perfect early summer dessert, so much easier to make than a regular strawberry pie, served with vanilla ice cream!
Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh strawberries, washed and sliced
- 1 pie crust
- ¼ cup sugar
- 2 Tbsp. corn starch
- Juice from half a lemon
- 1 Tbsp. butter
- 1 egg
- 1 Tbsp. water
- ¼ cup crystalized ginger, optional, if you don’t use, use 1 tsp. dried ginger
- Turbinado sugar or sugar in the Raw, for sprinkling
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degree F.
- Line large baking sheet (with sides) with parchment paper.
- Roll out dough of your favorite pie crust, or use refrigerated pie crust.
- In medium bowl, mix sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, crystalized ginger, and sliced strawberries.
- Pour strawberries into center of pie crust, mounding berries in the middle.
- Fold and crimp the dough, so it covers at least 2 inches of the filling. Freeze the galette for at least 15 minutes to chill the dough.
- Whisk egg and water together. Just before baking, brush edges of pie crust with egg wash, and sprinkle the dough generously with turbinado sugar.
- Add pats of butter on top of strawberries, in three or four small pieces.
- Bake for approximately 30 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream. Or, add a scoop of ice cream in the middle, or serve it simply with a dusting of powdered sugar or some whipped cream.
