For the Galette:
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 Tbsp sugar
- ¼ tsp kosher salt
- 1 stick + 3 Tbsp unsalted butter frozen and grated
- 3-5 Tbsp ice water
- 1 medium egg room temperature, for egg wash
- 1 Tbsp coarse sugar for sprinkling
For the Strawberry Filling:
- 4 ½ cups fresh strawberries stems removed and halved
- ¼ cup light brown sugar
- 5 Tbsp honey
- 2 Tbsp corn starch
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
To serve:
- 1-2 scoops Vanilla Ice Cream
- Fresh thyme
Instructions
For the Galette:
- In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar and salt.
- Remove butter from the freezer and grate, using a box grater. Using your hands, combine the butter with the flour mixture, breaking it into the flour until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add 3 tablespoons cold water and mix with a spatula, drizzling in more water as needed (no more than 1 tablespoon at a time), until the dough just comes together (a few dry spots are ok).
- Gently knead the dough on a lightly floured surface until no dry spots remain, about 1 minute. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate while the filling is being prepared.
- Preheat oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
For the Strawberry Filling:
- In a large bowl, combine the halved strawberries, light brown sugar, honey, corn starch and vanilla extract.
Assemble:
- Remove dough from the fridge and on a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out into an 12-inch circle. Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet by wrapping it around the rolling pin and unrolling over the sheet.
- Arrange the strawberry filling over the dough, leaving about 3 inches from the edges. Lift the edges up and fold up and over the berries.
- Brush the crust with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar (optional).
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, until golden brown.
To serve:
- Remove from the oven and cool for 3-5 minutes. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and some fresh thyme sprigs.
