A galette is a French term that means, "flat cake", a type of free form, flat, round crusty type cake filled with savory or sweet filling. It's a less fussy type dessert and perfection like a pie is not required. Folding over the fruit filled center to create a rustic crust is what a galette is all about. Novice bakers can easily make this beautiful and tasty low carb galette without trouble.

Toppings for Galette

Feel free to swap out the strawberries for any in season summer berry you prefer. The same prep method still applies for raspberries, blueberries or blackberries.

Simple sugar free whipped cream would be easy enough for this dessert or try some other ideas like my Keto Butter Pecan Ice Cream or Chocolate Sorbet!

Ingredients

PASTRY

1 ¼ cup almond flour or (125g)
4 tablespoon flaxseed meal golden
1 tbsp Swerve granular sweetener
1 teaspoon xanthan gum
¼ teaspoon salt
2 ounces butter cold and cubed or 50 grams or 3.5 tbsp
2 ounces cream cheese refrigerated
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
2 eggs (of which 1 is for the egg wash)

STRAWBERRIES

14 ounces strawberries sliced or halved (approx. 2.5 cups) or 400grams
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or lemon juice)
1 teaspoon xanthan gum
2 tablespoon Swerve granular sweetener
1 teaspoon lemon zested or ½ lemon

TO DECORATE

½ tablespoon Swerve confectioners (to dust)

Instructions

Place the almond flour, flax meal, erythritol, xanthan gum and salt in a food processor and pulse to combine, or mix in bowl with a spoon.
Add the butter and cream cheese and pulse till crumbly or rub with your fingers. Add the apple cider vinegar and 1 egg and pulse till the dough comes together into thick crumbs. It will be a little sticky, don’t worry.
Remove the dough from the food processor and shape into a ball. Cover with cling film and chill in the fridge for about 15 – 20 minutes, or until firm enough to roll.
Meanwhile, prepare the strawberries. Place all the ingredients for the strawberries in a bowl and mix to combine. Leave to rest whilst you roll the dough.
Roll the galette dough between two sheets of greaseproof paper to form a circle about 12 inches. Option to trim any stray edges if you like. Place back in the fridge for about 10 minutes to stiffen enough to fold.
NOTE: If at any point the dough gets unmanageable and a bit sticky, simply pop in the fridge for 10 minutes to stiffen up again.
Preheat oven to 400F / 200C /180 fan. Line a baking sheet pan with parchment. Place chilled dough onto pan.
Spread the strawberries onto the chilled dough in the center (make sure there is no excess liquid) leaving about 2 inches at the edges. Wet hands or a spatula and fold over the dough edges. Any cracks just press together with your fingers to seal.
Whisk the other egg with a fork in a cup and brush the top edges of the pastry. Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until golden. Dust with sugar free confectioners if desired.
Slice and serve with keto ice cream, whipped cream, Greek yogurt or coconut yogurt.
Storage: Fridge, covered for 2 days
