Description
From the crust to the filling, this Bursting Blueberry Galette with Orange Lavender Crust is filled with beautiful aromas. The orange lavender crust makes a perfect bed for the rosemary infused blueberry filling which sits atop a creamy layer of mascarpone.
Ingredients

Scale
Crust
- 1 1/4 cups (165g) all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp fine sea salt
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) COLD unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt or sour cream
- 1/4 cup COLD water
- 1/2 tbsp orange zest
- 1/2 tbsp lavender
Filling
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- pinch of salt
- 1/2 cup mascarpone cheese
- 4 sprigs fresh rosemary
- orange sherbet or ice cream, optional garnish
Instructions
Crust
- Add the flour and salt to a food processor (if you don’t have one, you can make the dough in a large bowl using a pastry blender or your fingertips).
- Add the cold butter then pulse a few times until the mixture becomes crumbly. Next, add the yogurt, water, orange zest and lavender then pulse a few times until the mixture begins to form a ball (if dough seems too dry continue to add water, 1 teaspoon at a time).
- Remove the ball of dough from the food processor and use your hands to flatten the dough into a disk shape. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm for at least 1 hour or overnight (my preferred method).
Filling
- Preheat oven to 400°F. In a large bowl, combine the blueberries and cornstarch until the blueberries are well coated. Next, add the lemon juice, sugar and salt and combine. Set aside.
- Galette assembly: Remove the chilled dough from the refrigerator and transfer to a lightly floured surface. Roll out the dough to roughly a 14″ circle (it does not have to be a perfect circle). Carefully transfer the dough to a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat (folding the dough in half twice makes it easier to transfer).
- Carefully spread the mascarpone cheese over the center of the dough, leaving a 3 inch border. Spoon the blueberry mixture over the mascarpone layer. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, pleating as you go. Leave a decent sized opening over the center (refer to my photos above).
- Tuck 2 sprigs of rosemary into the blueberry filling to create aroma as it bakes. Bake the galette for 30 minutes or when the dough is a beautiful golden color. Garnish with additional sprigs of rosemary and a scoop of orange sherbet. Allow galette to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
