Ingredients
  

Crust

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoon sugar
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 8 tablespoon unsalted butter cold and cut into small pieces
  • 3-5 tablespoon ice cold water

Filling

  • 4 cups peaches sliced, about 8 peaches
  • 3 tablespoon cornstarch
  • cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoon peach preserves
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 egg and Coarse sugar (sugar in the raw, sanding sugar) for brushing dough, optional
  • Ice cream for serving optional

Instructions
 

Crust

  • In a food processor, combine flour, sugar and salt and pulse a few times to mix. Add the butter and pulse until the crumbs are about the size of a pea.
  • With the processor running, add 3 tablespoon ice cold water and process until the dough starts to come together into a ball. Add an additional tablespoon of water if dough isn't coming together.
  • Dump the dough onto a floured surface and using your hands, bring together into a disc. Wrap the disc in plastic wrap and place in the fridge for 30 minutes to chill.

Galette

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and then place a piece of parchment on top of foil.
  • Combine the peaches, sugar, vanilla, peach preserves and cornstarch in a medium bowl. Mix gently to combine.
  • Roll out the dough onto a floured surface to a circle about ¼ inch thick and 14 inches in diameter. Place the crust onto the baking sheet.
  • Pour the filling onto the crust, leaving about 2 inches at the edge. Fold the edge of the crust up over the peaches all the way around the galette, pleating the dough as necessary to form a circle.
  • Whisk the egg in a small bowl and add a teaspoon of water. Brush the edges of the galette with the egg wash and then sprinkle with coarse sugar.
  • Place in the preheated oven and bake until the filling is bubbly and crust is golden brown, about 35-40 minutes. The galette will leak some during cooking. Allow to cool before slicing.

Notes

  • See the post for pictures on folding the edges of the dough.
  • The galette can be kept refrigerated, tightly covered with foil, for 2-3 days. It’s best warmed up in the microwave for 20 to 30 seconds if refrigerated.
  • The galette is best served slightly warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
