Mini Tropical Galette (Edit recipe)

We are admittedly obsessed with all things tropical, so this galette had to happen. The tropical flavors mingling together while it bakes, creates such a lovely aroma in your home. You may find yourself feeling the need to grab that island themed shirt/dress to wear when you enjoy this delight. A galette is basically a “rustic” pie and so much less work than an actual pie. Adding a layer of chopped mac nuts and coconut under the fruit adds a great texture element, which is optional, but for the curious, it’s worth an extra step! You can use our PIE CRUST recipe or our PIE CRUST MIX for this.

Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Make pie crust as directed, dividing dough in half. You can make two mini galettes or save the other half for another use. Preheat the oven to 415°.
On a dusted piece of parchment paper, roll out pie dough into a circle, approximately 10-11” in diameter, it does not have to be perfect! Leave dough on the parchment and slide onto a standard baking sheet.
Sprinkle macadamia nuts and coconut in the center of the dough, covering the middle 5” or so. Cover with plastic while you prepare fruit.
Add all the fruit to a small bowl, sprinkle with cassava flour, sugar and salt. Gently toss to coat so the salt can help release some of the natural juices.
Carefully mound filling into the center of the pie crust leaving about a 2.5” edge around the fruit that you’ll fold over the fruit.
Using the parchment, lift up and carefully fold dough over the filling about 2”, working your way around the circle, pleating dough as necessary, until dough is all folded up over filling.
Crack egg into a small bowl and mix well. Brush exposed dough and dust with additional sugar if using.
Place in the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes or until the crust is golden and the fruit is bubbly.
Remove from the oven and cool slightly before adding the drizzle.
To make the drizzle, stir together the powdered sugar and POG juice to desired consistency. Add additional powdered sugar or juice as needed. Drizzle on cooled galette, sprinkling chopped macadamia nuts, coconut and sesame seeds if using.
Slice and serve!

Notes

You can make two mini galettes or freeze the other half of the dough. Be sure to double the filling ingredients if you're making two. You can freeze the other half of the dough to use another time, simply wrap the dough ball up in plastic, flatten slightly and place in your freezer. // For a fun twist, instead of standard water in the pie dough, use a flavored sparkling water like a LaCroix coconut or mango. Adds a little flare to the crust. // You’ll need 2’ish cups of fruit, using a combo or all of one if you prefer. Totally customizable depending on the fruit you have available. Pineapples seem to be widely available most of the time, but choose your favorite and be creative. //. POG juice, a blend of passion fruit juice, orange juice & guava juice.
