Best 4 Peach Skillet Galette Recipes

FRESH PEACH GALETTE

Steps:

• Combine flour and salt in a medium bowl. Pour in water slowly and mix with a bowl scraper until absorbed. Add vanilla extract. Slowly mash butter into the mixture using your fingers until well combined. Flatten dough into a saucer and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1 hour or up to overnight.
• Place peaches in a medium bowl. Sprinkle with salt. Add sugar, vanilla paste, and cornstarch. Stir with a wooden spoon and let sit until peach juices are released, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Lightly flour a work surface. Roll dough out to a thickness of no more than 1/4 inch. Cut out circles of dough using the rim of a cereal bowl. Place rounds 1 inch apart on the baking sheet. Place 2 spoonfuls of the peach filling onto the center of each crust, leaving about 1/2 inch of space around the edges.
• Fold in the edges of the crusts 1/4 inch toward the center of each galette, forming a short lip to keep the filling in the middle.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crusts are golden brown and bottoms have been cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes.

PEACH GALETTE

Steps:

• On a lightly floured surface, unroll the two pie doughs. Overlap the dough by 3 inches to make a long, rectangular shape. Using a rolling pin, roll back and forth over just the center of the dough to bind them together, close the gaps between the two circles, and make it an even thickness. Transfer to a large, parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Preheat the oven to 425˚.
• Combine the granulated sugar, cinnamon and cornstarch in a large bowl. Add the peach slices and lemon juice and toss gently to coat.
• Arrange the peaches in a single layer on the pie dough, overlapping slightly, leaving a 1 ½-inch border. Fold the edges of the dough over the outer edge of the peaches, crimping every 3- to 4-inches, to keep the crust flat against the fruit. Brush the edges of the dough all over with heavy cream and sprinkle with coarse sugar. Drizzle ¼ cup of the liquid left in the mixing bowl over the peaches.
• Bake for 10 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 375˚ and bake for another 30 to 35 minutes, until the filling is bubbly and the crust is golden brown. Cool 5 minutes on the baking sheet, then slide the galette, on the parchment paper, to a cooling rack. Let cool at least 30 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce, if you like.

PEACH GALETTE

Steps:

• Make the crust dough: In a food processor, pulse the flour, sugar, and salt, until well mixed. Add the cubed butter, and pulse 8 times. The butter should still be the size of peas in the mixture. Slowly add the ice water, a tablespoon or two at a time, pulsing after each addition, until the dough just begins to clump. Turn out onto a clean surface. Use your clean hands to form into a disc. Do not over-knead. Work the dough only enough to bring it barely together into a disk. Sprinkle with a little flour on all sides, wrap with plastic, and place into the refrigerator to chill for an hour. (See our pate brisee recipe for more detailed instruction if you are new to making crusts.)
• Toss peaches with flour, sugar, vanilla: Preheat the oven with the rack in the middle position to 425°F (220°C). Place the peach slices in a bowl and sprinkle with the flour and sugar. Toss gently to coat. Sprinkle vanilla extract over the peaches.
• Whisk egg: In a small bowl, whisk the egg until smooth and set aside.

PEACH GALETTE

Steps:

• To make the pastry, combine the flours, granulated sugar, and salt in a food processor and pulse until blended. Scatter the butter over the flour mixture and pulse until it looks like coarse sand. (Alternatively, combine the flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl and work the mixture with a pastry blender until it has a sand-like texture.) In a small bowl or cup, whisk together the 1 egg and the milk until blended, pour into the food processor or bowl all at once, and pulse or gently mix by hand until the dough forms a rough clump. Do not overwork the dough to avoid toughness.
• Lightly flour a work surface. Transfer the dough to the floured surface, form it into a ball, and then flatten into a disk 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick. Don't knead it! Wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 1/2 to 2 hours or for up to 1 day.
• When the dough is well chilled, preheat the oven to 375°F.
• Remove the dough from the refrigerator and let it warm at room temperature for about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, make the filling. In a small bowl, stir together the granulated sugar, the flour, and the cinnamon, mixing well. Place the peaches in a bowl, sprinkle the sugar mixture over the top, and toss gently. (If the peaches are tart, you may want to add a little more sugar.)
• Lay a large sheet of parchment paper on a work surface and dust the parchment with flour. Place the dough on the floured parchment and roll it out into a round about 11 inches in diameter and 1/8 inch thick. Transfer the pastry with the parchment to a rimmed or rimless baking sheet large enough to accommodate the pastry round comfortably. Starting 1 to 1 1/2 inches from the edge of the round, arrange the peach wedges in a single layer in concentric circles, continuing until you reach the center of the round. Fold the outer edges of the pastry over the peaches, creating overlapping folds as you work around the perimeter. If your peaches are extra juicy, leave the extra juice in the bowl so that the filling does not overflow in the oven. Brush the pastry border with 1 tablespoon beaten egg and then sprinkle lightly with the turbinado sugar.
• Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbling. If your galette has a lot of juice, you may want to place a second pan on the lowest rack in the oven under the baking sheet to catch any juices that overflow.
• Let the galette cool on the baking sheet on a wire rack. Cut into wedges to serve.
