A rustic and elegant Vanilla Bean Berry Galette featuring a flaky pie crust filled with a medley of mixed berries infused with the sweet, aromatic flavor of vanilla bean. This easy-to-make dessert bakes until the berries are bubbling and the crust is golden, perfect for a summer treat or any time you crave a simple fruit tart.

Ingredients

Scale

Pie Dough

  • 1 prepared pie dough (homemade or store-bought), enough to line and fold over filling

Filling

  • 3 cups mixed berries (such as blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, and strawberries)
  • 1 vanilla bean, split and seeds scraped
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

Instructions

  1. Prepare the pie dough: Roll out the pie dough on a floured surface into a roughly 12-inch circle. Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  2. Prepare the berry filling: In a large bowl, combine the mixed berries, scraped vanilla bean seeds, and granulated sugar. Gently toss until the berries are evenly coated and the vanilla is well distributed.
  3. Assemble the galette: Spoon the berry mixture into the center of the rolled-out dough, leaving about a 2-inch border all around. Carefully fold the edges of the dough over the berries, pleating as needed to enclose the filling partially, ensuring some of the berries remain exposed in the center.
  4. Bake the galette: Place the assembled galette in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) and bake for approximately 40-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the berry filling is bubbling.
  5. Cool and serve: Remove from the oven and let the galette cool on the baking sheet for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the filling to set slightly for easier slicing.

Notes

  • For extra flakiness, chill the pie dough before rolling out.
  • Use fresh mixed berries for best flavor; frozen berries can be drained to avoid excess liquid.
  • Optional: Brush the crust with an egg wash and sprinkle with sugar for a shiny, sweet crust.
  • Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for added indulgence.
