A simple, free-form tart bursting with juicy summer blackberries, perfect for any home baker.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
  • 4-6 tablespoons ice water
  • 4 cups fresh blackberries
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • 1 tablespoon turbinado sugar (for sprinkling)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
  2. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces of butter remaining.
  3. Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
  4. Gather the dough into a ball, flatten it into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  5. In a separate bowl, gently toss the blackberries with granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice.
  6. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  7. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a 12-inch circle.
  8. Carefully transfer the dough to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  9. Spoon the blackberry filling into the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border.
  10. Dot the top of the berries with the small pieces of butter.
  11. Fold the dough border up and over the edges of the filling, pleating as you go to create a rustic crust.
  12. Brush the folded dough with the beaten egg wash and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
  13. Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  14. Let the galette cool on the baking sheet for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • For an extra touch of flavor, you can add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the blackberry filling.
  • Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
  • If your blackberries are very juicy, you may need to add an extra teaspoon of cornstarch to the filling.
