Spiced Peach / Plum / Nectarine Galette
Ingredients
- A packet of sweet short-crust pastry
- ¼ cup brown sugar (or any sugar will work)
- 1 tablespoon cornflour
- Zest & juice from 1 lemon
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- 700 g of ripe peaches (about 5-6), cut into thick wedges
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional!)
- Greek Yoghurt (for serving)
- Preheat oven to 190 C
- Allow your pastry to defrost and lay it onto a parchment lined baking tray. With scissors, cut into a rough circle (keep the offcuts!)
- In a large bowl whisk together brown sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest, pinch of salt, and ground ginger in a large bowl until combined. Gently stir in peaches, vanilla & lemon juice until peaches are fully coated.
- Arrange the fruit evenly in the center of the chilled dough. Leave a 4cm border around the edge.
- Fold edges of dough up and over fruit, leaving a gap in the middle. If the folded edges rip, don't panic! Patch with dough scraps and pinch to seal
- Brush some milk on the outside and sprinkle some sugar evenly on top
- Place galette in oven. Bake, rotating halfway through, until crust is deep golden brown, fruit is softened, and juices are bubbling (45–50 minutes)
- Cool for 2 hours before serving with Greek yoghurt (or you can use ice-cream!)
