Ingredients needed
The beauty of this recipe is how easy it is to put together. Using seasonal, fresh blueberries are obviously first choice but this rustic blueberry galette recipe works just as well with frozen blueberries. Using frozen and thawed puff pastry makes this recipe even easier but feel free to use any pastry, pie dough or homemade pie crust recipe of your choice.
- Blueberries. I used fresh but you could also use frozen. No need to thaw.
- Sugar.
- Lemon juice and zest.
- Cornstarch / Cornflour.
- Puff pastry. I used all butter frozen puff pastry.
- Milk / Cream for brushing the pastry. You can use egg wash too.
How to make easy blueberry galette (summary)
- Make the filling: Combine the filling ingredients in a large bowl. Mix well then set aside.
- Assemble the galette: Dust your kitchen counter with a little flour then roll the puff pastry out just a little (to approximately ½cm thickness) then trim into a rough circle. Transfer to a sheet pan or baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Pile the blueberry mixture into the center of the pastry, leaving a 4cm / 2-inch border, then bring the edges in, overlapping as you fold the pastry up around the filling all the way around. No need to be too careful, the more rustic the galette looks, the better. Brush with milk or cream and sprinkle with a little extra sugar.
- Bake: Bake the galette in a preheated oven for 30-45 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and crisp and the blueberries are soft and the filling has thickened slightly. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving with scoops of vanilla ice cream.
Can I make this ahead?
The blueberry filling can be made up to 2 hours ahead and the unbaked galette can be made an hour ahead and baked just before serving. The pastry will soften once baked because of all the juices from the fruit so it’s best served warm, no more than 30 minutes after baking.
Can I use other fruit for this galette?/
Absolutely. All berries, stone fruit, apples and pears will work well. Cherries, peaches, plums, nectarines, strawberries, blackberries, blueberries and raspberries will all be delicious.
