Cream Ingredients



Instructions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, cold unsalted butter, and cottage cheese using your hands or a mixer until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Once combined, add the salt, sugar, and egg. Mix until a soft dough forms. Place the dough into a plastic bag and refrigerate for 1 hour to allow it to firm up.
Step 2
In another bowl, mix together the cottage cheese, sugar, and soft cottage cheese. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
As a tip, you can replace the sugar with a sweetener of your choice, such as erythritol, for a healthier option.
Step 3
Preheat your oven to 185°C (365°F). Prepare a baking sheet lined with silicone parchment paper.
Roll out the dough and cut it into circles. Fill each circle with the prepared cream and fold the edges over to create a galette.
Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven. Use the upper and lower heating mode or convection for the best results.
Step 4
Once baked, let the galettes cool slightly. They are delicious served warm or cold!
Feel free to enjoy them with a scoop of ice cream or simply on their own. Personally, I love the crispy texture of the cooled galettes!

Equipment
A large mixing bowl is essential for combining your ingredients. Opt for a glass or mixing bowl that is clear to easily check the consistency of your dough.



This tool will help you roll out the dough to the perfect thickness. For best results, lightly dust it with flour to prevent sticking.



A sturdy baking sheet is necessary for baking your galettes. Make sure it’s flat and lined with silicone parchment for easy cleanup and browning.



This handy tool will help you transfer your galettes from the baking sheet to a serving plate without any mess.



A whisk is perfect for blending your cream filling ingredients smoothly, ensuring an even texture throughout.



Variations
Faq
- What if my dough is too sticky?
If your dough feels sticky, add a little more flour, a tablespoon at a time, while mixing until you reach a manageable consistency. Remember to handle it gently to maintain its flaky texture!
- Can I use frozen berries?
Absolutely! Frozen berries work perfectly in this recipe. Just make sure to thaw and drain them to avoid excess moisture in your galettes.
- How can I make my galettes more golden brown?
For a beautiful golden color, brush the edges of the galette with an egg wash or milk before baking. This step will give your pastries a lovely shine and color!
- Can I refrigerate the galettes after baking?
Yes! Store your baked galettes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Just reheat them in the oven for a few minutes before serving for that fresh-out-of-the-oven taste.
- What if I want to make smaller or larger galettes?
You can easily adjust the size! Just divide your dough into preferred portions before rolling out. Smaller galettes are perfect for appetizers, while larger ones can be served as centerpieces!
- Is it okay to use other fruits besides berries?
Definitely! Feel free to experiment with other fruits like apples, peaches, or plums. Just make sure to adjust the sugar content based on the sweetness of the fruits you choose.
