Butternut galette recipe

 

I love this time of year, as spring shifts into summer – when the days stretch a little longer, the air feels lighter and we start craving meals that bridge the gap between cosy and fresh. This rustic galette is just that, a beautiful change-of-season dish that celebrates summer’s arrival while keeping the comfort of flaky pastry and roasted vegetables. It’s simple yet elegant, making it perfect for a relaxed lunch in the sun or an easy dinner al fresco.

Spring lemon tartlets top shot flatlay

 

I’m a total sucker for anything citrus, so I couldn’t resist leaning into those sunny spring vibes (hello sunshine!) and creating these light, lemony tartlets. They’ve got a buttery shortbread crust that melts in your mouth and a silky lemon curd filling that’s bright, zesty and just the right amount of sharp. It’s a flavour combo that feels fresh, elegant and seriously delicious.

Apple galette with ice cream

 

When it comes to comfort food, the warm aroma and sweet taste of stewed apple with cinnamon are among the best, and I’ve made that the star of this easy, no-fuss dessert. This rustic galette offers all the cosy flavours of an apple pie without the hassle. The pastry comes together in a food processor in a matter of minutes, and best of all, you don’t even need a pie dish!

Apple tart

This beautiful spring dessert is fit for high tea! Apple tart does require a little time and effort, but you’ll be rewarded with a show stopping treat. The base is a sweet shortcrust pastry that can be made in a food processor (love that) which is filled with creamy vanilla bean crème pâtissière. This is topped with slices of apple and an apricot jam glaze – an absolute treat.

When I made this pie for the first time a few weeks ago the family really enjoyed it. We love chicken pie, and it’s been a while since I made something with phyllo pastry (I happened to have some in the freezer that needed to be used) so I put the two together in this very easy recipe – yummo!

Cheese and onion galette

Published on by Teresa UlyateLeave a comment

 

I’ve been making lots of galettes these last few weeks, they are my favourite thing to bake at the moment! The buttery, flaky pastry is easy to work with and there are lots of different toppings and flavours to play with. I also love the perfectly imperfect nature of galettes, and their rustic appearance.
