Description

A rustic and hearty Winter Vegetable and Goat Cheese Galette featuring a flaky herb-infused crust filled with roasted mixed vegetables and creamy goat cheese, perfect for a cozy meal during colder months.

Ingredients

Dough

  • 2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 1/2 teaspoon white vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons ice cold water
  • 3/4 cups (1 1/2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces or grated
  • 1 egg + 1 teaspoon water (for egg wash)

Filling

  • 3 to 4 cups assorted chopped vegetables (such as onions, peppers, cauliflower, squash, broccoli, brussels sprouts)
  • Olive oil for drizzling
  • Kosher salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
  • Balsamic glaze for drizzling (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F to prepare for roasting vegetables and baking the galette.
  2. Prepare the Dough: In a food processor, combine flour, dried basil, oregano, and salt by pulsing until mixed. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, white vinegar, and ice cold water. Add the cold butter pieces to the flour mixture and pulse until small coarse crumbs remain. Gradually sprinkle the egg mixture over the flour and pulse until the dough comes together.
  3. Chill the Dough: Remove the dough from the processor, shape with hands into a ball, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the dough to rest and firm up.
  4. Roast Vegetables: Spread the chopped vegetables on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season with kosher salt and pepper. Roast in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, tossing once or twice to ensure even cooking. Remove and let cool slightly.
  5. Roll Out Dough: Take the chilled dough out of the refrigerator and roll it out on a parchment-lined baking sheet into a rustic shape approximately 1/4 inch thick.
  6. Assemble Galette: Place the roasted vegetables in the center of the dough, crumble the goat cheese over the top, and gently toss to combine. Fold the edges of the dough inward over the filling, creating a free-form crust. Brush the crust edges with the egg wash made from beaten egg and water.
  7. Bake: Bake the galette in the oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the crust turns golden brown and crisp. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before slicing.
  8. Serve: Slice the galette and drizzle with balsamic glaze if desired. Serve warm. Reheat by placing in the oven for a few minutes or microwaving for convenience.

Notes

  • You can customize the vegetable mix based on seasonal availability or preferences.
  • Use cold butter and ice-cold water to ensure a flaky crust.
  • Chilling the dough is essential for texture and ease of handling.
  • Roasted vegetables should be cooled slightly before assembling to keep the crust from becoming soggy.
  • The galette reheats well in the oven, preserving crispness better than microwaving.
  • Balsamic glaze adds a sweet and tangy finish but is optional.
