Mixed Berry Galette (Cornmeal Crust)
Ingredients
- Flour1
- Cornmeal¼ cups
- Sugar7 tbsp
- Salt¼ tsp
- Butter · cubed½ cups
- Buttermilk¼ cups
- Fresh or frozen mixed berries*4 cups
- Cornstarch1 tbsp
- Lemon1 tbsp
- Egg · beaten
Instructions
- Whisk the flour, cornmeal, sugar and salt in a bowl. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture looks like coarse, pea-sized crumbs.
- Add the cold buttermilk and stir until the dough clumps. If it seems dry, add 1 more tablespoon of buttermilk.
- Bring the crumbly dough together on a lightly floured surface, shape into a ball and flatten into a 1-inch-thick disc.
- Wrap and chill for at least 1 hour (up to 3 days, or freeze up to 3 months).
- Mix the berries, sugar, cornstarch and lemon juice in a large bowl, just before using.
- Heat the oven to 425°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment or a silicone mat.
- Roll the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12 to 14-inch circle. Trim the edge if you like, then move it to the baking sheet.
- Spoon the filling into the centre, leaving a 2 to 3-inch border. Fold the edges over the fruit, overlapping as needed, and press to seal.
- Brush the edges with egg wash and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
- Bake for about 28 to 32 minutes, until the filling is bubbly and the crust golden brown.
- Cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before slicing.
