Easy Summer Berry Galette

Steps

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, sugar and salt for the crust.
  2. Add the cold butter cubes and cut them in with a pastry blender until most pieces are pea-size, with some as big as almonds.
  3. Sprinkle 3 tablespoons of ice water over the flour and toss with a fork. Squeeze a handful: if it holds together, it is ready. If it crumbles, add more water 1 tablespoon at a time.
  4. Gather the dough into a ball, press it into a 1-inch-thick disk and wrap it in plastic.
  5. Refrigerate the dough so the butter firms up and the flour hydrates.
  6. Heat the oven to 400°F (200°C) with a rack in the middle.
  7. On a floured sheet of parchment, roll the dough into a 12-inch circle, about 1/8 inch thick. Ragged edges are fine.
  8. Slide the parchment and dough onto a sheet pan.
  9. In a bowl, gently toss the berries with the sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest and juice.
  10. Pile the berries in the middle of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border all around.

Steps, continued

  1. Fold the border up over the edge of the fruit, pleating it every few inches. The center stays open.
  2. Chill the galette on the pan so the crust holds its shape.
  3. Brush the folded crust with egg wash and sprinkle it with the turbinado sugar.
  4. Bake until the crust is deep golden and the berry juices bubble thickly in the center.
  5. Cool on the pan so the juices thicken before slicing.
