Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 3–4 tablespoons ice water
  • 4–5 ripe nectarines, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 egg yolk beaten with 1 tablespoon water (for egg wash)
  • Turbinado sugar for sprinkling
  • Vanilla bean ice cream for serving

Instructions

  1. Make the crust: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and sugar. Add cold, cubed butter and cut into the flour until mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized bits. Add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing gently until dough just comes together. Form into a disk, wrap in plastic, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Prep the nectarines: Slice nectarines into thin wedges. Toss with honey, brown sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and cornstarch. Let sit for 10 minutes while preheating oven to 400°F (200°C).
  3. Roll out the dough: Lightly flour work surface and roll chilled dough into a roughly 12-inch circle about 1/4 inch thick.
  4. Assemble the galette: Transfer dough to parchment-lined baking sheet. Pile nectarines in center, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold edges over fruit, pleating to create a rustic crust.
  5. Finish and bake: Brush crust with egg wash and sprinkle with turbinado sugar. Bake 35-40 minutes until crust is golden and fruit is bubbling. Tent with foil if edges brown too quickly.
  6. Serve: Let cool 10-15 minutes, then slice and serve warm with vanilla bean ice cream.

Notes

Keep butter cold for flaky crust and chill dough before rolling. Toss nectarines gently to avoid watery filling. Use cornstarch to thicken juices. Tent galette with foil if edges brown too fast. Let galette rest before slicing for easier serving. For gluten-free, use almond flour crust; for dairy-free, substitute coconut oil and dairy-free ice cream.
