Peach Galette

This Gluten-Free Peach Galette features juicy peaches enveloped in a flaky, buttery crust that is both simple to prepare and delightful to eat. Perfect for a summer dessert, it highlights the sweet, natural flavors of fresh peaches and a hint of cinnamon.

Ingredients

• Gluten-free all-purpose flour - 120 grams
• Unsalted butter - 60 grams, cold and cubed
• Granulated sugar - 30 grams
• Ice water - 2 tablespoons
• Fresh peaches - 2 medium, sliced
• Brown sugar - 1 tablespoon
• Ground cinnamon - 1/2 teaspoon
• Lemon juice - 1 teaspoon
• Egg - 1, beaten (for egg wash)
• Salt - 1/4 teaspoon

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Add the cold, cubed butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
2. Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Form the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
3. Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
4. In another bowl, combine the sliced peaches, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and lemon juice. Toss gently to coat the peaches evenly.
5. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer it to the prepared baking sheet.
6. Arrange the peach mixture in the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold the edges of the dough over the peaches, pleating as necessary.
7. Brush the edges of the dough with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the peaches are soft.
9. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing and serving.
