Just hearing the words blueberry lemon galette sounds delicious, but for some it might be a tad bit intimidating. I'm here to tell you that YOU can make it!
Now if you want to spring for a homemade pie crust, then go for it. But, I know for me, the refrigerated roll out pie crusts are pretty darn good. And, this convenience step always makes me more inclined to make a pie, tart or galette.
Just what is a galette?
Well, according to our experts and good friend, Google, here's the difference between a pie and a galette.
A pie is a sweet or savory dish with a crust and a filling. The sides of a pie dish or pan are slopedIt can have a just a bottom, just a top, or both a bottom and a top crust. ... A galette is a round pastry wrapped and fruit filled dessert that is baked on a baking sheet.
Honestly, I don't care what you call it, as long as it's good. And this blueberry lemon galette is just fabulous. I love the bites of crusty buttery crust with the bursts of berries. If it's the dead of winter and you can't find sweet reasonably priced blueberries, then grab the frozen, Dole Sunshine berries that is. I promise they are perfect in every way. And, they're only the blueberries. That's it. Picked at the best time and then packaged for premium freshness!
When you're in a hurry and need an impressive little dessert, then here you go. It's a winner! If you'd like another idea for dessert using lemons, then try this lemon cream cake. Ohhhhh, it's so easy and soooooooooooooo good! xoxo ~ally
