Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 homemade pie crust or 1 refrigerated store-bought pie crust
- 3 –4 medium ripe peaches peeled if desired and sliced (about 4 cups)
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract optional
- Pinch of salt
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 tablespoon coarse sugar or granulated sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet or pizza pan with parchment paper.
- Roll the pie crust into a 12-inch circle if needed and place it on the prepared baking sheet.
- In a medium bowl, gently toss together the sliced peaches, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, vanilla (if using), and salt until evenly coated.
- Spoon the peach mixture into the center of the crust, leaving a 2-inch border around the edges. Spread the peaches into an even layer and avoid adding excess liquid from the bowl.
- Fold the edges of the crust over the peaches, overlapping slightly as you work around the circle. The center of the filling should remain exposed.
- Whisk together the egg and water. Brush the folded crust generously with the egg wash.
- Sprinkle the crust with coarse sugar or granulated sugar.
- Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the crust is deep golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling.
- Let the galette cool for at least 15–20 minutes before slicing. The filling will continue to thicken as it cools.
