Tips for perfect galette crust
Here are a few tips and tricks to ensure that your galette crust comes out buttery, flaky and perfect every time.
- Work with super cold butter. It helps if you pop your cubed butter in the freezer for at least 5-10 minutes.
- Add cold water in a little at a time. Adding a little at a time helps to make sure you don’t end up with a super sticky wet dough.
- Work butter in to dough. The butter should be pea-size before adding in water.
All Butter Pie Crust
I love an all butter crust for so many reasons but the main one being, it’s delicious! Just a few simple ingredients that you likely already have on hand. Mix the flour, sugar and salt together in a medium bowl then cut the cold butter into the dry ingredients. Butter should be about the size of a pea. Slowly add in water until the dough just comes together then turn onto a floured surface. Knead the dough until it just starts to come together then roll in a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and allow to chill for at least 1 hour.
