This rustic Peach Galette recipe features a flaky puff pastry crust filled with tender, spiced peach slices. Easy to assemble and bake in a skillet, it makes a perfect dessert served warm with ice cream or whipped cream.

Ingredients

Scale

Pastry

  • 1 sheet puff pastry (thawed)

Filling

  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 4–5 medium peaches (sliced ⅓ inch thick)

Toppings

  • 1 large egg (whisked)
  • 2 tablespoons coarse granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare it for baking the galette.
  2. Prepare the pastry base: Roll out the puff pastry just enough to fit the bottom of a 10-inch oven-safe skillet. Press gently into the base and slightly up the sides, then refrigerate while making the filling.
  3. Make the cinnamon-sugar mixture: In a small bowl, combine the cinnamon, brown sugar, and cornstarch thoroughly.
  4. Assemble the filling: Sprinkle half the cinnamon mixture evenly over the bottom of the puff pastry. Arrange the peach slices on top in overlapping circles or rows, then sprinkle the remaining cinnamon mixture evenly over the peaches.
  5. Create the galette crust border: Fold the edges of the puff pastry slightly over the peach filling to form a rustic border around the galette.
  6. Add egg wash and sugar: Brush the folded crust with the whisked egg, then sprinkle coarse granulated sugar over the crust to add a crunchy, sweet topping.
  7. Add melted butter: Drizzle the melted unsalted butter evenly over the peach filling to enhance richness and flavor.
  8. Bake: Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the pastry crust turns golden and the peach filling is bubbling and cooked through.
  9. Cool and serve: Let the galette cool for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with a scoop of ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for the best experience.

Notes

  • Ensure peaches are ripe but firm to hold shape during baking.
  • Keep the puff pastry chilled until ready to assemble to achieve a flaky crust.
  • You can substitute coarse sugar with turbinado or raw sugar for topping.
  • For a dairy-free version, replace butter with coconut oil and omit egg wash or use a plant-based alternative.
  • Galette is best served warm on the day it is baked.
