Ingredients

For the Filling

  • 3 cups blueberries you can use fresh or frozen
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp sugar you can use more if you'd like it sweeter

Instructions

  • Line cookie sheets with parchment paper and set them aside.
  • Place the berries in a medium-sized bowl
  • In a small box mix together lemon zest, lemon juice, and cornstarch.
  • Pour lemon juice mixture over the berries. Gently stir with a large spoon to combine the berries and dry ingredients until no white bits remain.
  • Taste the berries and if you want them sweeter add sugar 1 tablespoon at a time until the desired sweetness is reached. Refrigerate the berries while you roll out the pie dough.
  • The size of them can be left up to you. I made mine about 9" round, and then when I was getting to the end of the dough they became smaller.
  • Spoon 1/4 cup of the blueberry mixture into the center of the galette dough. Leave one inch at the border to fold over the top of the blueberries.
  • Fold over dough and pinch. Then brush egg wash (1 egg and 1 tbsp of water) and you can sprinkle with sugar if you'd like. I didn't but the option is there.
  • Bake in a 350-degree oven for 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
