Rustic Peach Galette (Free-Form Peach Pie) (Page 2 ) | August 16, 2023

Below, find a collection of tips and tricks to make the best rustic peach galette on the planet.

• Slice the peaches evenly. The more even the peach slices, the more even they will bake.
• Let the dough set for at least 30 minutes. Allow the dough time to set in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. You can make it several days ahead if you want to simplify day of prep.
• Use fresh peaches versus frozen. Frozen peaches will release a ton of moisture during the baking process, making your galette soggy.
• Don’t overstuff your galette. Resist stuffing your galette with too many peaches. You want to leave enough space at the edges so you can fold the dough over and create a nice crust.
• Use very cold water and butter for the crust. The colder the butter and water, the flakier the crust will turn out.
• Peel extra fuzzy peach skin. If the peach skin you are using is extra fluffy, feel free to peel it.
