This rustic and delicious Strawberry Galette is made with a tender olive oil-based pastry and topped with juicy strawberries, honey, orange juice, and zest. It’s a perfect dessert that combines sweetness, citrusy freshness, and a touch of crunch from the pistachios, all served with a dollop of reduced-fat vanilla yoghurt.

Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Pastry:
    • 1 1/2 cups (225g) plain flour
    • 2 tbsp icing sugar mixture
    • Pinch of salt
    • 1/4 cup (60ml) extra virgin olive oil
    • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • For the Filling:
    • 500g strawberries, halved or quartered if large
    • 1 tbsp orange juice
    • 2 tsp finely grated orange rind
    • 2 tsp honey
    • 1 tbsp pistachios, chopped
  • For Serving:
    • Orange zest
    • Reduced-fat vanilla yoghurt

Instructions

  • Prepare the Dough:
    • Sift the flour, icing sugar, and salt into a large bowl. Make a well in the center.
    • Add the olive oil and vanilla extract. Use a fork to start combining, then switch to your fingertips to mix until the texture is crumbly.
    • Gradually add ⅓ cup (80ml) cold water, using a round-bladed knife to stir in a cutting motion until the dough starts to clump together.
    • Gather the dough into a disc about 3cm thick, being careful not to overwork it, to keep the pastry tender. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes to rest.
  • Prepare the Filling:
    • Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).
    • In a large bowl, combine the strawberries, orange juice, orange rind, and honey. Toss gently to coat the strawberries evenly.
  • Assemble the Galette:
    • Roll out the chilled dough on a sheet of baking paper into a 30cm (12-inch) disc.
    • Arrange the strawberry mixture in the center of the dough, leaving a 5cm (2-inch) border around the edges.
    • Gently fold the edges of the pastry over the strawberries, pleating the dough as you go to create a rustic edge.
    • Transfer the galette, along with the baking paper, onto a baking tray.
  • Bake the Galette:
    • Bake the galette in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until the pastry is light golden brown.
    • Once baked, brush the strawberries with any juices collected on the tray to give them a lovely glaze.
  • Serve:
    • Transfer the galette to a serving plate. Sprinkle with chopped pistachios and additional orange zest.
    • Serve the galette warm with a side of reduced-fat vanilla yogurt.

Notes

  • The galette can also be served chilled or at room temperature.
  • You can substitute the pistachios with other nuts, like almonds or walnuts, for a different texture.
  • If you prefer a sweeter galette, feel free to add more honey or a sprinkle of sugar over the strawberries before baking.
