I think this was one of my favorite desserts this summer. It's delicious, very fresh and not loaded with unneeded calories. I had many people asking me how to make it. So easy.
1 disc of Trader Joe's Gourmet Pie Crust, the best!
2 tablespoons of flour
5 Peaches
1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice
pinch of salt
6 tablespoons of organic sugar
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon of pectin
cinnamon
Roll out dough on lightly floured PARCHMENT PAPER, not waxed paper that dough is rolled in.
Combine peaches, lemon juice, salt, 3 tablespoons of sugar, and pectin in the bowl. Gently mix together. Place the fruit mixture in the middle of the pastry, leaving 3- inch border. Fold up edges of pastry to partially cover peaches. Brush the whole pastry with egg wash and sprinkle with remaining sugar. Put your parchment paper with galette on rimmed baking sheet. Refrigerate for 40 minutes.
Preheat oven to 450 F. Bake galette for approximately 30 minutes. Should be golden. Let it cool. Sprinkle with little cinnamon, while still hot. Enjoy.
I put pectin that acts as a binder for fruit juices. Peaches have a lot of juice you just want to keep inside the fruit. Pectin does the perfect job. Galette is not runny, and peaches are juicy when you bite into them.
