Rustic Blueberry-Pecan Galette

Healthy Fact of the Day

Blueberries are packed with antioxidants, particularly anthocyanins, which may help protect against heart disease and certain cancers. Pecans provide healthy fats, fiber, and various minerals, contributing to heart health and potentially aiding in weight management. While this galette is a sweet treat, its homemade nature allows for control over sugar content and portion sizes.

Ingredients

 

For the crust:

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup finely ground pecans
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 3-4 tbsp ice water

 

For the filling:

  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 egg (for egg wash)
  • Coarse sugar for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Mix flour, ground pecans, sugar, and salt.

  2. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  3. Gradually add ice water until dough forms. Wrap and chill for 1 hour.

  4. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

  5. Mix blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla for the filling.

  6. Roll out dough on a floured surface into a 12-inch circle.

  7. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.

  8. Spread filling in the center, leaving a 2-inch border. Sprinkle with chopped pecans.

  9. Fold edges of dough over filling, pleating as you go.

  10. Brush crust with egg wash and sprinkle with coarse sugar.

  11. Bake for 35-40 minutes until crust is golden and filling is bubbly.

  12. Cool before serving.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
