Blueberry galette with crumble is a foolproof dessert. It is SO easy to make, also in a tiny kitchen. I am a big fan of keeping a frozen puff pastry in the freezer, so if some last-minute visitor is coming over – the puff pastry is my saviour. Amen. A great thing about a galette is that you can mix whatever fruit you like with butter and brown sugar. 

What is a galette?

Galette is a flat round cake of pastry or bread. There are different types of galettes but I recommend using Google for this one..

TIPS FOR THE LAZY GIRL RHUBARB GALETTE

• frozen puff pastry – you can make a crust at home. I like an easy and lazy version of everything so feel free to use frozen products.
• frozen blueberries – you can use fresh fruit but don’t feel any shame if you choose to grab a package of frozen forest fruit. Life should go easily. No worries, babes. Let it defrost in warm water and get rid of excess water.
• vanilla ice cream – if you are on a budget, buy cheap vanilla ice cream at your local Tesco. We don’t judge.

HOW TO MAKE Blueberry Galette With Crumble:

Preheat the oven to 180℃. Prepare a baking sheet with baking paper.

Roll out the pastry dough into the shape of a circle.

In a small pot cook the blueberries with brown sugar, vanilla syrup, and butter until they are very soft but not mashed. Add cornstarch and stir well. Let cook on medium-low heat for another 3 minutes and stir continuously. If you are using frozen blueberries, defrost them in warm water and get rid of the extra water before cooking.

Add the mixture right into the middle of the puff pastry. Leave a few centimetres from the sides. Fold the sides in so the galette has the shape of a circle. Beat the egg and use egg wash to brush the sides.

For the crumble: mix butter, sugar and flour with your fingers. After a few minutes, you should end up with a very crumbly dough. Sprinkle the galette with crumble.

Sprinkle the edges with brown sugar and bake for 20-25 minutes. Take the galette out of the oven and let it cool. You can serve the galette warm or cold, but I recommend serving it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
