There is no better time to make this easy blueberry galette than right NOW! If you love blueberry pie, you’re going to love this. It takes only minutes to put together, and in about an hour you can be enjoying it.

I’m all about pie…

If you ask me morning, noon, or night… if I want pie… my answer will always be YES!

It’s hard to resist but I don’t always want a huge pie staring me in the face… that is where this easy blueberry galette comes in…

What is a Galette you might ask?

It’s a rustic pie, it is thinner than traditional pie and no pie plate is needed, you can bake it on a baking sheet. You don’t need to make the pie crust perfect, you don’t even need to fuss with homemade crust if you don’t want to, you can purchase one and simply unroll it. Add the filling and bake.

OMG, it really is that easy.

I make pie crust often and don’t find this method difficult at all MY PIE CRUST RECIPE Print the recipe it will make 2 pie crusts you and refrigerate or freeze the second one to use later) or use a purchased crust, Pillsbury brand works well.

Will the bottom of this galette be firm?

Yes, the pie bakes at a high temp and it browns nicely on the crust on top and on the bottom. 

Homemade baked goods are always a good idea if you ask me, I love enjoying it with some whipped cream on top.

>> This is the kind of dessert you can make ahead of time and bake, and then just reheat it just before serving if you’d like, or serve it at room temperature with ice cream or whipped cream. You can also make the dough ahead of time, and then assemble it all as your clearing the dishes and before you know it, it’s piping hot out of the oven ready to enjoy.

What else can I make this with besides blueberries?

You can easily swap out the blueberry for raspberries, blackberries, or a mix of blueberries and strawberries (all strawberries will need a little more cornstarch as they are juicer, so add an additional tablespoon if you use 2 cups of sliced strawberries).

If you’re looking to add something additional to that galette, sliced almonds go well, some chocolate chips, shredded coconut, or even some oatmeal sprinkled over in the sugar mixture about 1/2 cup will all be good additions.

      Sorry about that, just add the butter to the top of the blueberries after you put them in the pie crust, the butter will melt down and give the galette a geat rich flavor.
