Ingredients

  • 1 refrigerated store-bought pie crust
  • 1 pint fresh blueberries about 2 cups
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon water

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Let the refrigerated pie crust sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes, or until it is pliable enough to unroll without cracking.
  • Unroll the pie crust onto a lightly floured work surface. Use a rolling pin to gently roll it into a circle measuring approximately 12 inches across.
  • Transfer the crust to the prepared sheet pan.
  • Add the blueberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch to a large bowl. Gently toss until the blueberries are evenly coated and no dry cornstarch remains.
  • Spoon the blueberry filling into the center of the crust, leaving a 2-inch border around the outside.
  • Working your way around the galette, gently lift the edge of the crust and fold it toward the filling. Slightly overlap the dough with each fold to create a rustic border. Leave the center of the blueberry filling exposed.
  • Whisk the egg and water together in a small bowl. Lightly brush the egg wash over the folded crust. Sprinkle with coarse or granulated sugar, if desired.
  • Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the crust is deeply golden brown and the blueberry filling is bubbling in the center.
  • Let the galette cool on the sheet pan for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. The filling will continue to thicken as it cools.

Notes

Puff Pastry Option: Replace the refrigerated pie crust with 1 sheet of thawed puff pastry or about 14 ounces of homemade puff pastry. Roll the pastry into a circle measuring approximately 12 inches across, then assemble the galette as directed. Bake at 425 degrees F for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Storage: Allow the blueberry galette to cool completely before storing. Cover loosely and keep at room temperature for up to 1 day, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days. The crust will gradually soften as the galette sits.
Reheating: Place the galette or individual slices on a sheet pan and reheat in a 350 degree F oven for 8 to 12 minutes, or until warmed through and the crust is crisp. Individual slices can also be reheated in an air fryer at 325 degrees F for 3 to 5 minutes. Avoid reheating in the microwave, which can make the crust soft.
