Drizzled with honey and baked to golden perfection, this galette is a simple yet elegant treat for any occasion. Whether served warm or at room temperature, it’s perfect with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream!

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • For the Filling:
  • 3 ½ cups sliced peaches
  • 1 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ tablespoons honey
  • Zest and juice from 1 large lemon
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
  • For the Dough:
  • 1 pie dough, rolled out into a 12-inch circle (store-bought or homemade)
  • For the Egg Wash:
  • 1 egg yolk, lightly beaten
  • 1 tablespoon turbinado sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, flour, honey, lemon zest, lemon juice, and thyme. Stir to combine and set aside.
  3. Prepare the Dough: Roll the pie dough out into a 12-inch circle. Make sure it’s even and not too thick. Place it on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Assemble the Galette: Spoon the peach mixture into the center of the dough, leaving about a 1-inch border. Gently fold the edges of the dough over the peaches, creating pleats as you go. Pinch the edges to secure them.
  5. Brush the Dough: Brush the folded crust with the egg yolk wash and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
  6. Bake: Bake the galette for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the peaches are bubbling.
  7. Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before serving. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely or serve warm. For an extra treat, top with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

  • Variations: Use nectarines, plums, or apples for a different twist. Add chopped almonds or pecans to the peach filling for extra crunch. For a savory version, reduce the honey, increase the thyme, and add goat cheese or ricotta. Use a gluten-free pie crust to make this galette gluten-free.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. Freeze the galette for up to 2 months. Thaw before serving. Reheat in the oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes or microwave individual slices for 20-30 seconds.
