Fig Galette (Whole or Mini)
Rustic and elegant, this fig galette combines buttery pastry with sweet figs, jam, and a drizzle of honey. Perfect as one large centerpiece or individual minis for brunch or dessert.
Ingredients
Pastry:
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 8 tablespoons (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into pats
- ¼ cup ice water, plus more as needed
Filling & Assembly:
- 6 large figs (or 12 small), sliced into rounds
- 6 tablespoons fig jam or orange marmalade
- 1–2 teaspoons honey, for drizzling
- 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- 1–2 teaspoons granulated sugar, for sprinkling
Instructions
Make the Pastry
- In a food processor, combine flour and salt.
- Add cold butter and pulse until pea-sized pieces remain.
- Transfer dough to a work surface, gently gather into a disc, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate at least 2 hours.
Assemble the Galette(s)
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Roll the chilled dough into a 12-inch circle for one large galette, or divide into 6 pieces and roll each into a 4–5 inch circle for minis. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Spread fig jam or marmalade over the center, leaving a 1–2 inch border. Arrange fig slices on top and drizzle with honey.
- Fold edges of dough over the filling, pleating as needed. Brush dough with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar.
Bake
- Bake 30–40 minutes, until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbling.
- Let cool slightly before serving.
