Mini Strawberry Rhubarb Galettes

Prep Time 30 minutes
Cook Time 40 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 10 minutes
Servings 6 - 4" galettes
Author Heidi @ Food Doodles

Ingredients

  • 1 recipe Whole Wheat Rye Pie Crust recipe below
  • 1/4 C almonds ground until fine
  • 1/2 C sugar divided
  • 2 C chopped rhubarb
  • 3 C fresh strawberries roughly chopped
  • 1 1/2 tbsp butter melted
  • 2 tbsp extra raw sugar for sprinkling

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prepare a rimmed baking sheet by lining with parchment or a non stick liner.
  • In one bowl stir together the ground almonds and 1/4 C sugar. Set aside.
  • Roll out pastry. For these galettes I made 6 - 4" galettes so I divided the dough into 6" before chilling then rolled them to about 6" before filling. This recipe will make 3 - 7" galettes or 2 - 10" galettes, but baking time will need to be adjusted.
  • For these mini galettes, roll out pastry to 6" in diameter, as round as possible.
  • Spread a spoonful of the almond sugar mixture to each one, about an inch from the edge.
  • Top with chopped fresh fruit, mounding in the middle. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 C sugar.
  • Gently fold up the edges, pushing the folds together(brushing with water to get them to stick if needed). Brush the crusts with melted butter and sprinkle with a coarse, raw sugar. Place in the lower 1/3 of the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes until golden brown and the juices are bubbling, rotating the baking sheet as needed. Remove from the oven and let cool on the sheets for 5-10 minutes. Run a butter knife along the edge of the crust to remove any fruit juices that have dripped out before they cool. Very carefully lift the galettes onto a wire rack to cool for 15-20 minutes or longer before serving.

Notes

Sucanat, palm sugar or even brown sugar are fine but I prefer a coarse, raw sugar for these rustic pies :)
