  • Recipe Submitted by on

 Ingredients List

  • PASTRY
  • 200 g white flour, sifted
  • 2 level tbsp icing sugar (or sugar ground in a coffee grinder)
  • 60 ml / ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • FILLING
  • 3 ripe peaches, sliced evenly
  • 2 tbsp peach or apricot jam (dissolved in 4 tbsp water)
  • 2 cups almond meal
  • 75 g sugar (I used raw cane brown sugar)
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 3 tbsp / 45 ml of Amaretto or almond milk
  • handful of chopped almonds, toasted

 Directions

In a bowl, combine sifted flour, salt, cinnamon and icing sugar.
Add olive oil and incorporate it into the flour mixture with your hands. Add the water tablespoon by tablespoon (I used 3 tbsp /45 ml – you may need a little less or more than I did depending on the absorbency of your flour). Combine into a dough, but do not knead. Roll a ½ cm thick circle of dough on a large piece of baking parchment. Place it on a tray and chill in the fridge for about 45-60 mins.
Set the oven to 180º C. In a mixing bowl, combine almond meal, sugar and cinnamon to create the almond filling.
Take chilled pastry out of the fridge. Put almond filling in the middle of the dough leaving 2 cm margin all around. Drizzle Amaretto all over the filling to moisten it. Arrange peach slices on the top and make sure there are no gaps in between the slices.
Crimp the pastry around the fruit in a rustic fashion. You can trim uneven edges if you want.
Using a pastry brush, apply apricot glaze to the pastry and fruit to give the pastry a nice shine and to prevent the fruit from drying out. Leave half of the glaze for later.
Protect the top with a piece of kitchen foil and bake for about 60-70 mins, depending on how dark you like your pastry. After 45 minutes, remove the foil from the top to allow the pastry to brown.
Once the galette is out of the oven, apply apricot glaze to the pastry to give it a bit of a shine. Scatter toasted almonds on top.
