Rustic Peach & Berry Galettes are a beautiful and delicious dessert that is perfect for summer evenings. These galettes are a simpler and more rustic version of traditional fruit pies, with no need for a pie pan or fancy crust decorations. The combination of the sweetened fruit and the buttery, flaky crust is a match made in heaven. These galettes can be enjoyed on their own or with a dollop of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an extra special treat. They are also a great dessert option for entertaining, as they can be made in advance and served at room temperature. Serve them on a beautiful platter and watch them disappear!

Instructions

1.In a food processor, pulse together the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, sugar (or splenda), salt, and butter until the mixture resembles coarse sand.
2.Stream in the buttermilk and ice water, pulsing briefly until the dough comes together.
3.Divide the dough into 6 portions and shape them into balls.
4.In a mixing bowl, toss together the peaches, berries, sugar (or splenda), and honey until well combined.
5.Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
6.Place each dough ball on the prepared sheet and roll it out to a 6-8 inch circle.
7.Arrange the fruit mixture on top of the dough, leaving about 1 inch of space around the edges.
8.Fold the edges of the dough over the fruit mixture, pleating it together as needed to create a rustic look.
9.Dot the tops of the galettes with thin slices of cold butter and bake them for 35-40 minutes, or until the crusts are golden brown and the fruit is bubbly and caramelized.
10.Serve the galettes warm or at room temperature, garnished with whipped cream or a dusting of powdered sugar if desired.

PROS

CONS
