Peach Blueberry Galette Recipe (2024)

Why Should You Make This Recipe?

• Visually Impressive: This Peach Galette recipe is my go-to summer dessert for entertaining. And it never fails, every time I put it on the table I see people’s faces light up followed by them asking me for the recipe.
• Lazy Man’s Pie: Some people refer to galette as “Lazy Man’s Pie” as you don’t have to stress about making the pie dough, rolling it out, and making it look picture perfect. With my foolproof galette dough recipe, you still get the buttery crust we all love with minimal effort and without any of the stress.
• Any stone fruit would work: You can use this basic recipe and switch up the fruit. During the summer months, I switch it up with other fresh fruits like apricots, cherries, and nectarine.
• Can be made ahead: I usually like to serve this peach and blueberry galette warm right after I serve dinner with a scoop of ice cream on top of each slice. So, I make the whole thing before dinner and pop it in the oven after I serve the main course. This way, it is nice and warm by the time I am ready to serve dessert.

How to make a galette with blueberries and peach?

This blueberry peach galette recipe has four folds:

Make the galette dough:

I recently shared my foolproof technique for making the galette dough from scratch in two ways: In the food processor and in a large bowl by hand. Below are the steps for making it in the food processor (because it is faster), but if you want to learn how to make it by hand, be sure to check out my galette dough recipe.

1. Place all-purpose flour and salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Pulse 3-4 times to mix.
2. Add in the cubed cold butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse sand. You want the butter pieces to look like small lentils. This process takes about ten 1-second pulses.
3. While the machine is still running, add in the ice water one tablespoon at a time until the dough starts to collect on the sides and form into a ball. I think this, the fact that the dough forms into a ball giving an idiot-proof visual cue of doneness, is the part that makes this recipe foolproof. Be sure to watch the how-to video in the recipe card to get a visual of what I mean.

4. Transfer dough onto a lightly floured surface and form it into a 4-inch flat disk. Wrap it tightly with a piece of plastic wrap and let it sit in the fridge for at least 45 minutes up to 2 days.
5. Take it out of the fridge and let it sit on the counter for 10-15 minutes before rolling it out. However, be aware that you might have to wait longer if the dough has been sitting in the fridge for more than 4 hours.

Prepare the fruit filling:

To prepare the blueberry peach filling:

1. Slice the peaches and plums in ¼-inch thick slices and place in a bowl with the blueberries.
2. Sprinkle it with coconut sugar and let it macerate while you are waiting for the dough to cool in the fridge.

Assemble and bake:

The last step is assembly. To do so:

1. Pre-heat oven to 375 F degree oven.

2. Roll dough into a 12-inch circle on a lightly floured surface. Gently roll the dough onto the rolling pin and transfer it onto a piece of parchment paper.
3. Sprinkle the dough with almond flour (or almond meal) for additional nutty flavors.
4. Place the peach mixture in the center of the dough mounting it in the middle making sure to leave a 2-inch border around the edge. You will have some liquid left in the bowl, I would use only 1-2 tablespoons of it in the filling and discard the rest to avoid the fruit juices making the galette soggy.
5. Fold the edges towards the middle onto the fruit pleading gently every 2-3 inches. Brush the galette dough with egg wash (a beaten egg mixed with a tablespoon of water) and sprinkle it with almond slices.
6. Sprinkle the galette with a tablespoon of coconut sugar (optional) or any other coarse sugar like turbinado sugar.
7. Transfer it onto a prepared baking sheet. Bake in a preheated oven for 50-55 minutes for a delicious, flaky, and rustic peach galette recipe.
8. Let it cool on the counter for a few minutes. Dilute a tablespoon of honey with a tablespoon of water and lightly brush the top of the fruit.
9. Slice and serve.

How to serve this fruit galette recipe?

While you can certainly serve this blueberry peach galette by itself, here are a few ways you can take it to a whole other level:

• Ice Cream: A few scoops of vanilla ice cream is definitely a nice addition, but if you can get your hands on it try blackberry or blueberry ice cream (like I used in the pictures) as well.
• Creme fraiche: If you want to do it like the French, serve it with a dollop of creme fraiche on the side. The tangy flavor of cream fraiche pairs beautifully with the sweetness coming from the fruit.
• Serve it warm, cold, or at room temperature. It is delicious in every possible way.

Expert Tips:

• Almond Slices: When I first baked this blueberry galette, I was a little worried that the thinly sliced almonds wouldn’t be able to stand the 50-minute 375-degree oven heat and burn. However, this was not the case. Yes, they were browned a little bit, but not burned at all. And they added a nice crunch to the overall recipe. I wanted to mention this just in case you had that question in mind as well.
• Cold butter and ice cold water are a must: For a flaky crust, make sure that your butter is cold. I usually cut it up into cubes and pop it in the freezer for 10-15 minutes while I am working on the rest of the ingredients.
• Squeeze of fresh lemon juice and zest: If you want to brighten up the flavors, you can add in a small amount of lemon zest and lemon juice into the fruit mixture.

Variations for this peach blueberry galette

What I love about this blueberry and peach galette recipe is that it is so versatile. You can use any fruit you have on hand. Below are a few variations that you can make with summer fruits:

• Blueberry Nectarine Galette: Swap peaches with nectarines
• Peach Blackberry Galette: Swap blueberries with blackberries
• Nectarine Galette Recipe (or 1-type of fruit): If you prefer, you can use only one kind of fruit. Nectarines, peaches, apricots, blueberries, etc. all work well for filling in this recipe.
