A rustic and easy-to-make Vanilla Bean Berry Galette featuring a flaky pie dough crust filled with a sweet and vibrant mixed berry filling infused with fragrant vanilla bean. Perfect for a casual dessert or a delightful summer treat.

Ingredients

Scale

Pie Dough

  • 1 prepared pie dough (about 9 inches)

Fruit Filling

  • 3 cups mixed berries (such as blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, and blackberries)
  • 1 vanilla bean, split and seeds scraped
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for thickening)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: Roll out your pie dough into a roughly 12-inch circle on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving the dough thickness about 1/8 inch, ready to be filled with berries.
  2. Make the Berry Filling: In a bowl, combine the mixed berries with granulated sugar, scraped vanilla bean seeds, and cornstarch if using. Toss gently to coat all the berries evenly.
  3. Fill the Dough: Spoon the berry mixture onto the center of the dough circle, leaving about a 2-inch border around the edges free of filling for folding.
  4. Fold the Edges: Carefully fold the edges of the dough up and over the berry filling, pleating as needed to form a rustic crust that partially covers the berries, leaving the center exposed.
  5. Bake the Galette: Place the galette in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the berry filling is bubbly and thickened.
  6. Cool and Serve: Remove the galette from the oven and allow it to cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving to let the filling set.

Notes

  • Use fresh or frozen berries; if using frozen, do not thaw to avoid excess liquid.
  • Adding cornstarch helps thicken the berry juices during baking for less runny filling.
  • Brush the crust edges with an egg wash for a shiny, golden finish if desired.
  • Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for added indulgence.
