For the Dough






For the Filling








Instructions
Step 1
*Defrost* the black currants and drain them in a sieve to remove excess liquid. *Chop* the plums into small pieces.
*Combine* the fruits with corn starch, coconut sugar, and *cinnamon* to taste. Set aside while preparing the dough.
Step 2
In a bowl, *combine* the ground flaxseed, whole-grain spelt flour, and baking powder. Add the Jerusalem artichoke syrup, *melted* coconut oil, and hot water (around 158°F). It is important to add the water *gradually* as you mix, adjusting as needed based on your flour.
*Knead* the dough until it forms a *smooth* ball that can be easily shaped. Roll it out on parchment paper, approximately 3 cm border around the edges.
Step 3
*Prick* the rolled dough lightly with a fork. Spread the *prepared filling* onto the dough, leaving the borders uncovered. Fold the edges over the filling, pinching them to create a neatly folded edge.
For an extra touch, you may sprinkle coconut sugar over the edges for a caramelized finish.
Step 4
*Preheat* the oven to 180°C (approximately 350°F). *Bake* the galette for around 15 minutes until the crust is golden and the fruit is bubbly.
*Let cool* before serving to enjoy this delicious vegan treat with a cup of tea!
Servings
Let’s talk about indulgence! 🫐✨ Serve your berry galette slightly warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream to elevate its fruity charm.
Consider going gourmet with a drizzle of warm chocolate sauce or a sprinkle of chopped nuts for added crunch and flavor. This, my friends, is where your afternoon tea meets its ultimate dessert partner. 🍰☕️
For a more refreshing twist, pair it with a chilled glass of sparkling wine or berry-infused iced tea. Perfect for a sunny picnic or a cozy night in, this galette is incredibly versatile. 🥂 Enjoy it your way, because every moment is sweeter with a slice of berry goodness!
Equipment
A rolling pin is essential for achieving the perfect thin crust. If dough sticks to the pin, lightly dust it with flour.



You can use this handy tool to brush water or a little syrup on the borders for that golden finish.
A flat baking sheet ensures even baking. Cover it with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make clean-up easier.



A sieve is great for draining thawed fruits, ensuring your filling isn’t too watery.
Variations
🎉 Gluten-Free Option: Swap the spelt flour for a gluten-free flour blend that suits baking pastries. Almond flour can also be a lovely alternative, giving a nutty depth.
🌱 Vegan Delight: Replace the coconut oil with vegan butter to maintain that rich texture, and opt for agave syrup instead of jerusalem artichoke syrup for a plant-based sweetness. Enjoy a guilt-free indulgence!
Faq
- Why is my dough too sticky?
If your dough is sticking, add a bit more flour and ensure you’re working on a well-floured surface. Remember, humidity can affect dough consistency.
- Can I use frozen berries for the filling?
Absolutely! Just make sure they are properly thawed and drained to avoid a soggy bottom.
- How can I make my crust more flaky?
Ensure that your oil (or butter for non-vegan options) is cold when you mix it into the dough. This helps create that desired flakiness.
- Why did my crust burn before the filling was cooked?
Consider lowering your oven temperature slightly and covering the crust edges with foil if you notice them browning too quickly.
- Can I prepare the dough in advance and refrigerate it?
Indeed! Chilling your dough for at least an hour (or up to 24 hours) can enhance the flavors and improve texture.
- What other fruits can I use for this galette?
Feel free to experiment with apples, peaches, or pears. Combining different fruits can result in exciting new flavors!
