Ingredients
  

  • 4 Ripe peaches Peeled, pitted and sliced
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon Cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • ½ tablespoon Unsalted butter chilled, cut in pieces
  • 1 egg for egg wash
  • 1 9-inch premade pie dough
  • 2 tablespoons Turbinado sugar

Instructions
 

  • Center a rack and preheat oven to 425℉ Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside
  • Peel and slice the peaches into a medium size bowl. Add the sugar, flour, cinnamon and vanilla. Gently stir to combine. Let it sit for about 10 minutes
  • Meanwhile, roll the pie dough out flat on the parchment lined baking sheet
  • Using a slotted spoon, lift the peach slices out of the bowl (leaving the juices in the bowl) and onto the center of the pie dough, mounding them in the middle leaving a band of about 2 inches bare all around.
  • Pick up the edges of the dough and fold them up against the peaches. As you fold, the dough will bend and pleat on itself-that's what you want it to do. You don't have to be precise. Remember, this is 'rustic'! Scatter the pieces of butter on the peaches.
  • If there is a crack in the dough, fix it by smoothing it with a little water on your finger, pressing it together.
  • Make an egg wash by whisking the egg in a small bowl and add about 1 tablespoon water to thin it down. Brush the folded edges of the dough with the egg wash then sprinkle it with the turbinado sugar.
  • Bake the galette for 30 minutes, or until the crust is brown. Remove from the oven and serve immediately. A scoop of vanilla ice cream is so delicious on top, but it wonderful all on it's own.

Notes

Tips:

• Store bought (already rolled out) dough is a time saver
• If you don't have Turbinado sugar, substitute granulated sugar
• Plain water will work for the egg wash but the crust won't get as brown
