A quick and easy cherry almond galette with a flaky crust, caramelized cherries, and toasted almonds, served warm with vanilla bean ice cream for a perfect balance of flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package (about 14 oz / 400 g) store-bought or homemade pie dough
  • 3 cups (about 450 g) fresh or frozen cherries, pitted
  • 1/2 cup (about 50 g) sliced almonds, toasted if possible
  • 1/3 cup (65 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 2 tablespoons (15 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons (28 g) cold butter, cut into small cubes
  • 1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water (egg wash)
  • Vanilla bean ice cream, about 4 scoops for serving

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, toss the pitted cherries with granulated sugar, almond extract, and flour. Let sit for 10 minutes.
  2. Roll out the pie dough on a lightly floured surface into a roughly 12-inch (30 cm) circle and transfer to a lined baking sheet.
  3. Spread the cherry mixture evenly over the center, leaving a 2-inch (5 cm) border around the edges. Dot with cold butter cubes.
  4. Sprinkle toasted sliced almonds over the cherries, reserving some for garnish if desired.
  5. Fold the dough edges up and over the filling, pleating to create a rustic crust with cherries peeking out.
  6. Brush the exposed dough edges with the egg wash for a golden finish.
  7. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 35–40 minutes until crust is golden and filling is bubbling. Tent with foil if edges brown too fast.
  8. Cool on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes to let the filling set.
  9. Slice and serve warm with generous scoops of vanilla bean ice cream.

Notes

Keep ingredients cold for flaky crust. Do not overload filling to avoid soggy crust. Use flour to thicken filling and prevent runniness. Tent edges with foil if browning too fast. Let galette cool before slicing. Substitute almond flour for sliced almonds for smoother texture. Use coconut milk ice cream for dairy-free option. Brush crust with milk instead of egg wash to avoid raw eggs.
