Ingredients
1 (12oz/340g) puff pastry sheet, thawed
about 30g sliced almonds
Optional: ice cream for serving
For the Frangipane:
4 oz (113g) unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs at room temperature
2 teaspoons pure almond extract
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 and 1/2 cups almond flour
the zest of an orange or lemon
For the Cherry Filling:
600g pitted cherries
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons (16g) cornstarch
1 teaspoon lemon or orange juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Make the Frangipane: In a large mixing bowl combine the butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla, and almond extract. Whisk together until smooth. Zest the citrus into the almond flour and add it to the mixture. Mix together until smooth. Set aside.
Make the Cherry Filling: Combine all of the cherry filling ingredients in a large bowl and mix together until the cherries are coated.
Roll the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface about 2 inches all around. Using a 10-inch round pan, press it into the center of the pastry to mark it.
Transfer the puff pastry to a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Spread a very thin layer of the almond frangipane onto the center circle and also spread a thin layer around the pastry. Pile the cherry filling on top of the almond frangipane in the circle area.
Fold the edges of the pastry to create a crust and to slightly cover the edges of the filling.
Spread a thick layer of almond frangipane all over the puff pastry border. Sprinkle almonds all around the crust.
Chill the galette in the freezer for 15-20 minutes while the oven preheats.
Preheat the oven to 375 °F, 190 °C.
Bake the galette on the center rack of the preheated oven for 45-55 minutes.
Allow the pastry to cool to room temperature and serve topped with ice cream.
Enjoy! Kali Orexi!
Notes
Fresh cherries work best in this galette but I always end up making it with frozen. They are already pitted and that saves so much time. Keep in mind that frozen cherries release more juices so the galette will have more cherry sauce. I don't mind it and actually enjoy the flavor. If you prefer a thicker cherry filling, add a half tablespoon of cornstarch to the filling ingredients prior to baking.
The galette can be assembled and chilled in the freezer until frozen solid. Wrap in plastic wrap so that it does not absorb freezer odors and it will keep fresh frozen up to 2 months. Bake for an additional 10 minutes and enjoy!
