I couldn’t sleep thinking about all the things I wanted to make with the blueberries we just picked. I ended up getting up early and decided to make a Blueberry Galette. I adapted this Williams Sonoma Berry Galette and made it gluten-free, vegan, and dairy free. The coconut oil gives the crust a nice flavor. I added some lemon zest to mine as I like the combination of blueberry and lemon but you can omit this if you want and make a plain blueberry one. I am off to enjoy mine on the deck with a cup of coffee and enjoy this beautiful summer morning.
Flaky Pastry Dough
Makes 1 galette
1 1/3c gluten-free all-purpose flour (used Cup 4 Cup)
1/2 tsp salt
1/2c plus 1 TBSP (9TBSP total) coconut oil, solid form
1/4c ice water
Lemon Blueberry Filling
4c fresh blueberries
zest from 1/2-1 lemon
juice from 1/2 a lemon
3TBSP coconut palm sugar
3TBSP gluten-free flour
Preheat oven to 425. In a food processor, add the flour and salt and pulse to combine. Add spoonfuls of solid coconut oil to the flour and pulse just until the mixture forms coarse crumbs, about the size of peas. Add ice water to the flour mixture and pulse just until the dough starts to come together. Transfer to a floured surface and roll out, not too thin. I rolled mine out part way, transferred to a baking sheet and rolled it to a 10-12″ circle. In a bowl mix together blueberries, lemon zest and juice, and coconut palm sugar. Sprinkle flour in, so you don’t get clumps, and mix. Place berry mixture in the middle of crust leaving a 2 inch border. Fold up the edges over the berries. Bake until the filling is bubbling and the pastry is golden brown, about 25 minutes. Transfer the galette to a wire rack and let cool slightly. Top with optional lemon zest. Enjoy!

Is the zest in the filling from 1 and a half lemons or just half a lemon? PS. This dish looks gorgeous and delicious.

It is the zest of half of a lemon to a whole lemon, depending on how much lemon flavor you want, I usually use a whole lemon. Thank you! I hope you enjoy it!

I have never made vegan galettes before. Is it required to leave this dough set for at least an hour prior to baking? Also, do you freeze all of your ingredients first? I’ve read(also own trial and errors) that its best to have all ingredients the same temperature when making the dough. Thank you so much for your response!! I LOVE your recipes!!!!

I don’t let the dough set or freeze ingredients. Just make sure the coconut oil is solid (which may require refrigeration). Thank you, hope you enjoy this one.
