Best 6 The Most Delicious And Easy Plum Galette Recipes

PLUM GALETTE

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 375°F. Line a large (17- by 12-inch) baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin into a 13-inch round. Transfer to baking sheet.
• Stir together semolina flour and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar and spread evenly over dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Arrange plums, skin sides down, in 1 layer on top of sugar mixture, then sprinkle plums with 3 tablespoons granulated sugar. Fold in edge of dough to cover outer rim of plums, pleating dough as necessary.
• Bake galette, loosely covered with a sheet of foil, 40 minutes. Remove foil and bake until fruit is tender and juices are bubbling, about 5 minutes more.
• Transfer galette on baking sheet to a rack and immediately brush hot juices over plums using a pastry brush. Dust hot galette with confectioners sugar (sugar will melt and help glaze galette). Cool to warm or room temperature, about 30 minutes.
• While galette cools, stir together crme frache, Armagnac (if using), and remaining 3 tablespoons granulated sugar in a bowl until sugar is dissolved. Serve galette with Armagnac cream.

THE MOST DELICIOUS AND EASY PLUM GALETTE

Steps:

• Make the pate brisee: Put the flour, butter and salt in a food processor and process for 5 seconds; the butter should still be visible and in small pieces. Add the ice water and process for 5 seconds longer, just until the dough comes together; you should still be able to see the butter bits.
• Form the dough: Remove the dough from the processor and gather it into a ball. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough, into a 16" to 17" round, about ⅛" thick. Drape the dough over the rolling pin and transfer it to a large baking sheet, lined with parchment paper. Chill the dough until firm, about 20 minutes. Preheat the oven to 400°.
• Make the filling: In a small bowl, combine ¼ cup of the sugar with the ground almonds and flour. Spread this mixture evenly over the dough to within 2" of the edge. Arrange the plum wedges on top and dot with the butter. Sprinkle all but 2 teaspoons of the remaining ⅓ cup sugar over the fruit. Fold the edge of the dough up over the plums to create a 2" border. (If the dough feels cold and firm, wait for a few minutes until it softens to prevent it from cracking.) Sprinkle the border with the reserved 2 teaspoons of sugar.
• Bake the gallete: Place the galette in the middle of the oven and bake for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, until the fruit is very soft and the crust is nicely browned. If any juices have leaked onto the baking sheet, slide a knife under the galette to release it from the sheet. Evenly brush the preserves over the hot fruit. This will give them a nice glaze. Let the galette cool to room temperature before serving.

PLUM GALETTE

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat.
• Sprinkle a lightly floured work surface with 1 tablespoon turbinado sugar. Roll out dough to a 12-inch round, about 1/4-inch thick. Transfer dough to prepared baking sheet and refrigerate until ready to use, up to 1 hour. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• In a small bowl, mix together 1 tablespoon flour, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. In a large bowl gently toss together plums and zest. Sprinkle the flour mixture over plums; gently toss until evenly coated. Transfer plum mixture on top of dough, leaving a 2-inch border all the way around. Fold border over plum mixture, overlapping where necessary and gently pressing to adhere the folds.
• In a small bowl, beat together egg with 1 teaspoon water. Brush edges of dough with egg mixture, and sprinkle with turbinado sugar. Bake until crust is golden brown and juices are bubbling, about 45 minutes. Transfer the baking sheet to a wire rack to cool. Serve warm or at room temperature.

PEACH-PLUM GALETTE

Steps:

• Make the crust: Whisk the all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, granulated sugar, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl. Work in the butter until it is in pea-size pieces. Mix the sour cream with 3 tablespoons ice water, then stir into the flour mixture with a fork. Turn out the dough onto a piece of plastic wrap, press into a disk and wrap. Refrigerate 2 hours. Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a 12-inch circle. Place on a baking sheet and refrigerate 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Make the filling: Toss the peaches and plums with the granulated sugar, cornstarch and lemon juice. Arrange the fruit over the dough, leaving a 1 1/2-inch border. Fold in the edge of the dough, pleating as needed.
• Bake the galette: Brush the edge of the dough with beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar. Bake until golden and bubbling, 45 to 50 minutes.

PLUM GALETTE

Steps:

• Dust a clean, dry surface with a small amount of flour (take a pinch between your fingers and then throw it onto the countertop like you were shooting dice). With a rolling pin, roll the pate sablee using quick, short strokes from the middle of the dough, until you've formed a circle roughly 10-inches in diameter and about 1/4-inch thick. Every few strokes, lift and turn the dough a quarter-turn, dusting underneath with a small amount more of flour, if necessary, to prevent sticking. Place your rolling pin over the bottom quarter of the dough and lift the bottom edge of the dough up and over the pin. Roll the pin away from you slightly to help gather the dough circle onto the pin, then unroll the dough onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator to chill for 10 minutes and up to 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the plum wedges in a bowl and toss with the sugar and juice of half a lemon. Remove the baking sheet from the freezer. Working from the center, arrange the plum wedges thickly over the dough, leaving about a 1 1/2-inch border all around the edges. Fold the exposed edges of dough up and over the plums so that the galette looks something like a pizza with a border of crust all around the outside. Brush the dough with the beaten egg and sprinkle with more sugar. Place on the bottom rack of the oven and bake until the crust is golden and the fruit is soft, about 1 hour. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly on a baking rack. If using, sprinkle with the toasted almonds.
• When the galette is no longer hot to the touch, slide onto a cake plate or pedestal. Serve warm or at room temperature.
• In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Pulse to combine. Add the butter and pulse the food processor on and off until the mixture resembles coarse sand with pea-sized lumps of butter still showing. Add the egg yolk and the ice water and pulse on and off until the mixture comes together but does not form a single mass. Turn the dough out onto a clean surface and gather it up into a loose ball. Working with a small bit of dough at a time, smoosh the dough across the counter away from you with the heel of your hand and then scrape it up with a pastry cutter and gather it back together, forming a second ball. Repeat with the remaining dough until all the smooshed dough is in a single ball. Flatten into a disk, wrap well in plastic wrap, and let rest in the refrigerator at least 30 minutes and up to overnight.

PLUM AND ALMOND GALETTE

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine 2 1/2 cups flour, butter, 1 teaspoon sugar, and salt; pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup ice water. Pulse until dough is crumbly but holds together when squeezed (if necessary, add up to 1/4 cup remaining ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time). Don't overmix. Remove dough from processor and shape into a disk; wrap in plastic and refrigerate 1 hour. Meanwhile, wipe bowl of food processor clean and add almonds, 3 tablespoons sugar, and 2 tablespoons flour; pulse until ground to a coarse meal.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. On a floured surface, roll out dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet; sprinkle almond mixture over dough. With a spatula, transfer plums to dough; press lightly to fan out, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold edge of dough over fruit. Refrigerate 20 minutes. Brush crust with cream; sprinkle galette with 2 tablespoons sugar. Bake until crust is golden and underside is cooked through, about 70 minutes.
