Ingredients
Vegan Pastry Crust
Dry Ingredients:
3/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour
3/4 cup all purpose flour
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
pinch sea salt
Wet Ingredients:
1/3 cup coconut oil
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons maple syrup
4 tablespoons ice cold water
Strawberry Galette Filling:
1 pint strawberries
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1 teaspoon vailla extract
1/2 lemon zest & juice
1 tablespoon organic cane sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
For pastry crust edge :
1 tablespoon coconut oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- In a medium bowl, combine the dry ingredients using a whisk.
- Add oil to bowl using fingertips or a pastry cutter. Work into the flour until it becomes a coarse consistency.
- In a small bowl mix together maple syrup, 1 tablespoon water, vanilla. Drizzle into the dough while blending in with a wooden spoon (can use your hands but do not over knead the dough).
- Slowly add water one tablespoon at a time until the dough is moist (not dripping) and holding together.
- Form a ball with the dough and flatten like a disk. Place in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes.
- Filling mixture: clean and thinly slice strawberries, place in a bowl, mix together the remaining filling ingredients, pour over the strawberries and stir until well blended. Set aside.
- Remove dough from the refrigerator. Unwrap and place between 2 large pieces of parchment paper.
- Roll out the dough until it has a diameter of 9 inches and not thicker than 1/8 inch.
- Place the parchment with dough on a baking sheet. Score the dough by making a few small slits. Arrange the strawberries on the dough, leaving a 1 1/2 inch border.
- Work your way around the galette, folding over the edges. Brush edges with oil.
- Bake at 350° for 35 minutes.
- Serve warm or cold, plain or topped with frozen non-dairy ice cream or whipped cream. Enjoy!
Notes
*If trying to be gluten free you can use your favorite combo of flours – I recommend adding in some almond flour for extra flavor.
