Grain-Free Sweet Cherry Galette
A healthier twist on a summer dessert, this galette is grain- and gluten-free and so easy to make!
Ingredients
Grain-Free Crust
- 1 1/2 cup (150g) almond flour
- 1/2 cup (55g) tapioca starch
- 6 tbsp cold butter, cubed
- 1 egg
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
Cherry Filling
- 2 cups (1 lb) sweet cherries halved, pitted
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp tapioca starch
To Assemble
- 1 egg whisked
- 2 tbsp sliced almonds
- 1 tbsp turbinado sugar optional
Instructions
- In a food processor combine all pie dough ingredients and process until mixture comes together and forms a ball.
- Chill dough, covered, in the fridge for 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, toss together all the filling ingredients and set aside.
- To assemble: preheat oven to 375F.
- Roll out chilled dough with a rolling pin to a 10" round, and 1/4" thickness.
- Transfer dough to parchment-lined baking sheet. Add filling to centre to dough. Fold the edges of the dough carefully over the filling–it should create a nice ribbon effect.
- Brush dough with beaten egg wash and sprinkle with almonds. If using, sprinkle on turbinado sugar.
- Bake galette at 375F for 35-40 minutes, until edges are brown and filling is bubbling.
