DESSERT GALETTE PASTRY



Dessert Galette Pastry image

A galette is a free-form pie, more rustic than a tart, that is baked directly on a sheet pan or baking stone. Although they're usually made with classic buttery pie dough or puff pastry, I've developed this yeasted dough recipe, which is delicate and tasty but not too rich. The yield is enough for two galettes, but has only 60 grams of butter (about four tablespoons). It's sort of a cross between a pizza dough and pie-crust dough, wholesome because of the addition of whole-wheat flour but not heavy. Almond flour contributes a nutty flavor and delicate texture, but it's optional. The trick is to roll it very thin, then freeze it right away so that it doesn't continue to rise and become too bready. Make sure to dust your work surface well before you roll out the pastry, and to let the dough rest for a few minutes after each few passes with the rolling pin so that it doesn't shrink back, as yeast doughs do. If you keep letting it rest, you won't have trouble achieving a thin 12- to 13-inch round.

Time 1h30m

Yield Makes enough for 2 9 -inch galettes

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 grams (1 1/2 teaspoons) active dry yeast
115 grams (1/2 cup) lukewarm water
2 tablespoons plus 1/4 teaspoon sugar
1 large egg, at room temperature, beaten
135 grams (1 cup) whole-wheat flour
155 grams (1 1/4 cups) unbleached flour
25 grams (1/4 cup) almond flour (optional)
1/2 teaspoon salt
60 grams (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter at room temperature

Steps:

  • Dissolve the yeast in the water. Add 1/4 teaspoon of the sugar, and allow the mixture to sit until it is creamy, about 5 minutes. Beat in the egg.
  • Sift together the flours, 2 tablespoons sugar, and salt into a large bowl or into the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the paddle or a large bowl. Add the butter and work with your fingers or beat at low speed until the mixture is crumbly. Add the yeast mixture and stir or beat at low speed until the ingredients come together. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently just until the dough is smooth, about a minute. Shape into a ball. Place in a lightly buttered bowl, cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and allow the dough to rise in a draft-free spot until it has doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide into 2 equal pieces. Gently shape each piece into a ball without kneading it, cover the dough loosely with plastic wrap and let it rest for 5 minutes.
  • Roll out into very thin rounds, about 12 to 13 inches in diameter. If you have a Silpat silicone mat, roll the dough out on the mat; otherwise, use a lightly floured surface and dust regularly with flour to prevent the dough from sticking.
  • Cover a pizza pan or a baking sheet with plastic wrap and place the rolled-out dough on top. Wrap the edges of the plastic wrap over the dough and place plastic wrap on top. Roll out the other round, wrap in plastic and place on top of the first round. Freeze until ready to use.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will result in a more flavorful and delicious cake.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter and more tender cake.
  • Gradually add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition: This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing can toughen the cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help to ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Pastel galletas cookie cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion.
