ONE-CRUST GALETTE From the recipe box of travel writer Carole Terwilliger Meyers. Follow her Travels With Carole blog.
This one-crust open pie is best eaten warm from the oven the same day it is baked. It is very popular with my family and so simple that I make it frequently.
1 uncooked pie crust (I usually use Pillsbury refrigerated pie crust) Place in the bottom of a 9-inch pie plate.
1 pound, or 1 1/2 -2 cups fresh or frozen berries or stone fruit or a mix ¼ cup sugar ¼ tsp. cinnamon (use nutmeg with plums; ½ tsp. almond extract with cherries ) 2 Tbl. flour or 4 apples, peeled and sliced (4 slices/quarter apple) 2 Tbl. brown sugar juice of ½ lemon ½ tsp. grated lemon rind 1 tsp. cinnamon pinch of salt
Fold together gently. Place in pie crust. Pleat pie crust in about 2 inches, leaving a center opening of about 4 to 6 inches. Brush with milk or egg (optional). Sprinkle with sugar.
400 degrees, 45 minutes.
