Yield Makes one 14-inch tart

Number Of Ingredients 10

All-purpose flour, for dusting
Pate Sucree for Tarts
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup unsalted almonds, toasted and cooled
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 pounds sweet cherries, such as Bing, pitted
2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon heavy cream

Steps:

  • On a piece of lightly floured parchment, roll out dough to a 16-inch-long oval (1/4 inch thick). Transfer dough and parchment to a baking sheet. Refrigerate until cold, about 30 minutes.
  • Process 1/4 cup sugar, the almonds, nutmeg, and salt in a food processor to combine. Gently toss with cherries.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spoon cherries over dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Dot with butter. Fold in edges, pressing gently. Refrigerate until cold, 30 minutes.
  • Whisk yolk with cream; brush over edges of tart. Sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar (or to taste). Bake until golden, 45 to 50 minutes.

The cherry galette was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still a good dessert. The crust was flaky and the cherries were juicy, but I would have preferred a more tart filling.

I thought the cherry galette was just okay. The crust was a bit too dry for my taste and the cherries were not very sweet. I would not make this recipe again.

The cherry galette was a disappointment. The crust was dry and crumbly, and the cherries were tart and not very flavorful. I would not recommend this recipe.
