Bright and delicious plum galette with a variety of sweet and tart plums.
Ingredients:
  • Crust:
  • 1 1/4 cup (160g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 sticks (137g) unsalted butter, cut into cubes
  • 1/4 cup (57 ml) sour cream
  • 1 egg, beaten, for egg wash (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon cream for egg wash (optional)
  • Coarse sugar for sprinkling (optional)
  • Filling:
  • 6 to 8 tart plums and/or pluots, pitted and sliced (about 570g)
  • 1/3 cup (70 g) sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon orange (or lemon) zest
  • 1 teaspoon quick tapioca, or 1 tablespoon of flour (for thickening)
Instructions:
  • Prepare the galette dough: If making a homemade crust, prepare the dough at least an hour ahead. Combine flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Incorporate cubed butter into the mixture until it looks like coarse crumbs with butter pieces no larger than a pea. Stir in sour cream with a fork. Shape the dough into a ball, flatten into a disk, wrap with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least an hour before rolling it out.
  • Combine plum slices with sugar, cinnamon, lemon, and instant tapioca: Gently mix plums with sugar, cinnamon, lemon zest, juice, and instant tapioca in a bowl.
  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) for the perfect cooking temperature.
  • Let pie dough stand at room temperature for 5 minutes. Line baking sheet with parchment paper, silicone mat, or lightly butter it. Roll out dough on a floured surface to a 13-inch round.
  • Center the plum slices on the dough round and gently fold up the edges to reveal the circle of filling. Transfer the pie dough to a lined or buttered baking sheet, starting the circular arrangement of plums about 1 1/2 to 2 inches from the outer edge and moving towards the center.
  • Create a shiny crust by brushing with egg wash and sprinkling with coarse sugar. Simply whisk together the egg and cream in a small bowl, then brush the exposed pastry crust. Sprinkle evenly with coarse sugar.
  • Bake at 375°F (190°C) on the middle oven rack for 40-50 minutes until the crust is lightly browned and the filling is bubbly. Allow to cool on a rack for an hour before serving.
