Chocolate Cherry Galette Recipe

Ingrédients

• 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
• 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/4 cup granulated white sugar
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 5/8 cup unsalted butter, cold
• 3 tbsp milk, cold
• 3 tbsp water, cold
• 1 large egg white
• 1 tbsp light or dark brown sugar
• 1 lbs cherries, pitted and halved
• 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1 tbsp cornstarch
• 1/2 cup high-quality milk chocolate or semi-sweet chocolate, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp unsalted butter

Préparation

1. 1

   Place flour, cocoa, sugar, salt, and butter in a food processor and pulse for a few seconds. Pea-sized butter flakes should be still visible. Add one tablespoon milk and water after another and pulse for 1-2 times after every tablespoon. Form pie crust into a disc without kneading. Wrap in plastic foil tightly. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour up to 2 days.

2. 2

   Preheat oven to 425°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.

3. 3

   In a large mixing bowl, stir cherries, sugar, and cornstarch to combine. Set aside.

4. 4

   Roll out dough into a 1/8 inch (0.4cm) thick circle and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the pie crust with chocolate, leaving 2-3 inch space around the edges. Spoon cherries with very little liquid on top of the chocolate. Fold edges over cherries and press gently to seal the edges. Brush edges with egg white, and sprinkle with brown sugar. Cut butter into small flakes and add on top of the cherries. Bake for about 25-27 minutes. Allow cooling at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
