Sweet Fig Galette with Peaches and Blackberries


Ingredients:
Master Fig Galette Recipe

For the filling
  • 18 fresh black figs, stemmed and quartered lengthwise (should yield about 2 cups)
  • 1 cup fresh blackberries, rinsed and drained
  • 1 large yellow peach, chopped in to 1/2" chunks
  • 1/2 tsp. almond extract
  • 1/4 tsp. ground ginger
  • 2 tbsp. firmly packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. grated lemon zest
  • Butter flavored cooking spray
  • 2 tbsp. granulated sugar, for dusting
Directions
  1. Prepare all of your fruit and place in a medium sized mixing bowl.  Add in the rest of the filling ingredients.  Stir gently with a spoon or spatula until all the ingredients are well mixed, taking care not to break apart the blackberries.  Set aside and allow the sugar to dissolve for 10 minutes.

  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 ̊ F. Roll out your galette dough from the Master Fig Galette Recipe and place on baking stone or baking sheet. If using baking stone, lightly dust with cornmeal first.
  • Spoon the filling ingredients on the to center of the rolled out dough, and spread the filling so that it extends across the dough, but leaves a 1 1/2" border. Fold the border over the filling, so that there is overlap.  Lightly spritz the cooking spray along the folded border. Sprinkle 1 tbsp. of the granulated sugar along the sprayed surface, and the other 1 tbsp. along the top of the fruit filling.


  • Place the galette in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, until crust is lightly crispy and golden brown. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before cutting in to slices with a pizza cutter. Serve warm.
