PLUM & FIG GALETTE
One of my favorite recipes to make is the heirloom tomato galette by Wishbone Kitchen. I love her crust, and it’s super simple to make, so I decided to make a dessert inspired by that dish. Hope you enjoy!
Time: 3 hours and 30 min (25 min active time) | Difficulty: 3/5 | Servings: 4
1. Make the Pie Dough
Add 2 cups of flour, cubed cold butter, and a generous pinch of salt to your food processor and pulse until the butter is about the size of peas. Transfer to a large bowl, and add your apple cider vinegar and ⅓ cup ice water. Stir with a fork. If not fully combined, add a little water.
2. Knead
On a clean work surface dusted with flour, knead until there are no more dry spots. Wrap in plastic wrap and let chill in the fridge for AT LEAST 2 HOURS.
3. Preheat
Once done chilling, preheat oven to 400 degrees.
4. Start Making Your Filling
Slice your plums into ¼-inch thick wedges and your figs into ¼ slices. Place in separate bowls and evenly distribute the lemon juice, vanilla, half the sugar, salt, and cornstarch, and gently toss to mix.
5. Shape Your Dough
Transfer your dough to a clean work surface. Dust with flour and roll out into a large circle until the dough is about ⅛ of an inch thick. Carefully transfer to a sheet tray lined with parchment.
6. Build Your Galette
Immediately, place your plums and figs in the center and folding the crust around the edges.
7. Brush
Brush the exposed crust with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar (Optional).
8. Bake
Once done building your galette, place in the oven for 45-55 minutes.
9. Finish
Let cool for 15 minutes before serving. Option to top with powdered sugar, and a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whip cream.
