APRICOT, CHERRY AND ALMOND GALETTE



Apricot, Cherry and Almond Galette image

Apricots and cherries are two stone fruits that have great affinity for each other and for almonds. Even less than perfect apricots will do here, as they will sweeten and their flavor will deepen as they bake.

Categories     dessert

Time 2h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 dessert galette pastry (1/2 recipe)
6 ounces cherries, pitted and cut in half
1 pound apricots, pitted and halved or quartered, depending on the size
30 grams (3 tablespoons) slivered almonds
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
3 tablespoons raw brown sugar
25 grams (1/4 cup) almond powder
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 egg beaten with 1 teaspoon milk, for egg wash

Steps:

  • Remove the pastry from the freezer and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Leave it to thaw while you prepare the fruit, but don't keep it out of the freezer for too long. It will thaw quickly, and it is easiest to handle if it's cold. You want it just soft enough so that you can manipulate it.
  • Combine the cherries, apricots, slivered almonds, almond extract and 2 tablespoons of the sugar in a large bowl and gently toss together.
  • Sprinkle the almond powder over the pastry, leaving a 2- to 3-inch border all around. Place the fruit on top. Fold the edges of the dough in over the fruit, pleating the edges as you work your way around the fruit to form a free-form tart that is roughly 9 inches in diameter. Place in the freezer on the baking sheet for 45 minutes to an hour. This helps the galette maintain its shape.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Remove the galette from the freezer. Brush the exposed edge of the pastry with the egg wash. Combine the remaining tablespoon of sugar and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon and sprinkle over the fruit and the crust. Place in the oven and bake 1 hour, until the fruit is bubbly and the juice is running out and caramelizing on the parchment. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for at least 15 minutes. Serve hot or warm or at room temperature.

ONE-HOUR APRICOT AND ALMOND GALETTE



One-Hour Apricot and Almond Galette image

A luxurious almond cream makes this one-hour summer stone fruit dessert taste like an all-day labor of love.

Provided by Chris Morocco

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup almonds, preferably blanched
1/3 cup sugar, plus more for sprinkling
1 large egg
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of kosher salt
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, plus more for surface
1 package frozen puff pastry, preferably all-butter, thawed
12 apricots (about 1 1/4 pounds), halved, pitted, or other stone fruit, quartered if large

Steps:

  • Place a rack in middle of oven; preheat to 425°F. Pulse almonds and 1/3 cup sugar in a food processor until very finely ground. Add egg and pulse to combine. Add butter, almond extract (if using), vanilla extract, salt, and 1 Tbsp. flour; pulse until almond cream is smooth.
  • Roll out pastry on a lightly floured surface just to smooth out any creases.
  • If you're using a package of pastry that has 2 sheets, stack and roll out to a 1/4"-1/8"-thick rectangle.
  • If your package contains a single 16x10" sheet of puff pastry, halve it crosswise and roll out one half on a lightly floured surface until rectangle is 1/4"-1/8" thick; save remaining half for another use. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Fold over edges of pastry to make a 1/2" border around all sides. Prick surface all over with a fork (this keeps the pastry from rising too much when baked and helps it cook through). Spread almond cream over pastry, staying inside borders. (Chill dough in the freezer for a few minutes if it becomes too soft to work with.) Set apricots, cut sides up, on top of almond cream. Sprinkle lightly with sugar.
  • Bake galette until pastry is golden brown and puffed, 15-20 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F and continue to bake until pastry is deep golden brown and cooked through and apricots are softened and browned in spots, 15-20 minutes longer.
  • Do Ahead:
  • Almond cream can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and chill.

Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

10 small fresh apricots, pitted and quartered
⅓ cup white sugar
1 cup almond meal
½ cup confectioners' sugar
1 egg
1 (9 inch) refrigerated pie crust (such as Pillsbury®)
⅓ cup apricot jam, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Roll out pie crust onto a baking sheet.
  • Toss the quartered apricots with the white sugar in a bowl. Mix almond meal, confectioners' sugar, and egg together in another bowl to create a paste. Spread almond paste on the center of the pie crust, leaving 1/2 inch of bare crust all around the edge. Arrange the sugared apricots over the almond paste. Fold the 1/2-inch bare edge of the crust inward over the almond paste and apricots, leaving the center of the tart uncovered. Crimp the edge down with a fork as you go around the tart.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is golden brown, about 40 minutes. Brush the melted apricot jam over the hot galette. Slice and serve.

Tips:

- Use ripe apricots for the best flavor. If your apricots are not ripe, you can roast them in the oven for a few minutes to bring out their sweetness. - If you don't have almond flour, you can make your own by grinding almonds in a food processor until they are finely ground. - You can also use other nuts in this recipe, such as walnuts or pecans. - If you don't have a galette dish, you can use a pie plate or a baking sheet. - Be sure to chill the galette dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help to prevent the dough from shrinking in the oven. - Brush the galette crust with an egg wash before baking. This will help to give the crust a golden brown color. - Serve the galette warm or at room temperature with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.
