Rustic Raspberry Galette

Jump to Recipe

Raspberry Galettes are basically pie crust filled with sweetened raspberries also known as a raspberry tarts. Pairing the mint with a bit of orange juice really lifts the flavor of this “rustic” dessert. Rustic in this case means easy and without finesse. Think of this recipe as a super quick way to enjoy a raspberry pie.

Whether you are using fresh raspberries from the farmer’s market or de-thawing berries you froze over the winter these tarts taste like summer. Unapologetically, I crave fruit  no matter the temperature outside. Therefore, when that need for summer fruit strikes I can instantly whip up a batch of tarts.

Raspberry Tart or Raspberry Galette

A Raspberry Tart is made with short crust pastry either shaped by hand or in a tart pan with a shortbread crust. Raspberry Galettes are open faced pies free formed with pie crust that fold over the center. So I guess this recipe is both!

Tips for Rustic Raspberry Tarts:

  • Use frozen fresh raspberries to maintain shape while baking. You can use fresh un-frozen raspberries, but I found they turn to mush while shaping the tart.
  • Homemade Pie Crust dough can be made the day before, wrapped in plastic and kept in the fridge.
  • You will need to let over night dough sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to soften slightly before rolling out.
  •  Otherwise make your dough, wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 1-2 hrs.
  • Set frozen raspberries on the counter for about 15-20 minutes before coating with sugar, orange juice, and mint.
  • Weigh your dough with a kitchen scale and then divide into six equal portions.
  • Roll each section into a rough circle about ⅛-1/4 inch thickness.
  • Sprinkle the dough with almond flour just in the center where you will place the raspberries.
  • Arrange coated raspberries in the center and fold dough crust inward. Press and fold the dough slightly over itself and the raspberries.
  • Using a pastry brush, paint a thin coat of egg wash on the pastry.
  • Sprinkle pastry and raspberries lightly with coarse sugar if desired.
  • Bake until pastry is golden brown and forming a crust texture on the bottom.
  • Serve with vanilla ice cream or even a lovely lavender ice cream.

This recipe can be made with a variety of fresh berries. Swap the raspberries for blueberries or blackberries, or a mixture of all.
