Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Dough

In a large bowl, combine *all dough ingredients* - cottage cheese, flour, egg, baking powder, sugar, and butter. Use your hands or a pastry cutter to mix until a dough forms.

*Chill the dough* in the refrigerator for at least half an hour to make it easier to roll out later.

Step 2

Make the Filling

In a separate bowl, mix together *all filling ingredients* - cottage cheese, sugar, egg, and vanilla. Stir until you achieve a smooth consistency.

Step 3

Prepare the Peaches

Split the peaches into halves and slice them into thin wedges. They will serve as a juicy, sweet topping for your galette.

Step 4

Assemble the Galette

Preheat your oven to *180°C (350°F)*. Roll out the chilled dough into a large circle on a piece of parchment paper or a lightly floured surface.

In the center, spread the cottage cheese filling and then arrange the peach slices on top. Gently fold the edges of the dough over the filling, creating pleats as needed. Brush the crust with *beaten egg* to achieve a golden brown finish during baking.

*Optionally*, sprinkle some sugar on top for extra sweetness.

Step 5

Bake

Transfer the galette onto a baking sheet. Bake it in the preheated oven for about 30-40 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the peaches are tender.

Step 6

Serve

Once baked, allow the galette to cool slightly. *Sprinkle powdered sugar* on top if desired. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat. *Enjoy*!❤️

Servings

Picture this: your freshly baked Peach Galette, resting majestically on a rustic wooden table. **The aroma of sweet peaches and buttery crust fills the air.** Here’s how you serve this masterpiece: Start with a dollop of **vanilla ice cream** on top of each warm slice to create a _heavenly combination_ of hot and cold in each bite 😋. Watch as it slowly melts over your creation. For an afternoon tea twist, pair slices with _a drizzle of honey and a sprinkle of chopped almonds or pistachios_ for extra crunch and sweetness 💧🌰. This adds a touch of elegance and sophistication, making it ideal for special occasions or entertaining guests. If you're enjoying this as a breakfast treat, serve it alongside a **steaming cup of coffee or a refreshing iced tea** 🥤. The meal will kickstart your day with unmatched joy and satisfaction. **_Remember, the possibilities are endless_**, and this galette shines just as beautifully with various accompaniments.

Variations

Embrace the versatility of this Peach Galette by trying **gluten-free and vegan versions**: Gluten-Free Option: Replace regular flour with a 1:1 gluten-free baking flour. Ensure your baking powder is also gluten-free, and you can continue relishing the same flavors without any restrictions. 🌾 Vegan Option: Substitute the butter with a dairy-free alternative like coconut oil or a vegan margarine. Use a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons water) instead of a regular egg. Opt for oat milk for the brushing step and still enjoy that mouth-watering, golden crust. 🥥 **Get creative** by swapping peaches for berries or adding a splash of lemon zest for extra zing 🍋. This flexibility ensures everyone can revel in the joy of homemade pastry!

Faq

  • Why is my dough too sticky?

    Ensure you're using the correct amount of flour and cold ingredients. Sometimes, humidity can affect dough consistency, so feel free to add a bit more flour if needed.

  • Can I prepare the dough ahead of time?

    Absolutely! You can make the dough up to two days in advance. Just wrap it in plastic and store it in the fridge.

  • How can I ensure my galette holds its shape?

    Chilling your dough before rolling and filling is crucial. This allows the butter to firm up, resulting in a better hold and flake.

  • What other fruits can I use instead of peaches?

    Feel free to experiment with apricots, plums, or even berries like blueberries or raspberries. Just adjust the sugar level to match the fruits' sweetness.

  • How to achieve a really crispy crust?

    Brush the edges with an egg wash and sprinkle a little coarse sugar on top before baking. This will give it an extra crunch and sweetness.

  • Can I freeze leftovers?

    Yes, wrap the leftovers tightly in plastic wrap and freeze. To reheat, pop the slices in an oven at 350°F (175°C) until warmed through.
