Mini Blueberry Galettes

So then I decided to rearrange the words. Mini Blueberry Flat Pies. Flat Mini Blueberry Pies. Pie Mini Flat Blueberry. None of them clicked for me.

So in the end, I decided to call them Mini Blueberry Galettes, since a galette is basically a flat pie, and since that title uses only three words and helps me sleep more soundly at night. Except “galette” isn’t actually a word I really like to use very often, because to me it’s so much easier just to say “flat pie.”

Be glad you don’t have to live in my head. It’s a complete mess in here.

Here’s the recipe for the miniature flat blueberry pastry pie galette things! They’re delightful…despite the mighty struggle it took for me to name them.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 package Storebought Pie Crust (2 Rounds Of Dough)
• 2 cups Blueberries (generous)
• 1/4 cup Sugar, Plus Extra For Sprinkling
• 2 Tablespoons Cornstarch
• 1 whole Lemon
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• Pinch Of Salt
• 1 whole Egg
• 1 Tablespoon Water
• Whipped Cream, For Serving

INSTRUCTIONS:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. 

Stir together blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, 1 teaspoon lemon zest, juice of half the lemon, vanilla, and salt in a bowl. Set it aside once it's all combined. 

Unroll the two discs of dough. Using a 5-inch round pastry cutter (or you can trace a knife around a 5-inch bowl) cut three rounds of pastry from each disc. Re-roll the scraps and cut 2 more. Place them on 2 baking sheets lined with a baking mat or parchment (4 rounds each pan). Evenly distribute the blueberry mixture between the six discs (approximately 1/4 cup per round).

Gently fold the over the edges of each crust, folding the dough in on itself to create a small rim of crust.

Make an egg wash by beating together the egg and water. Brush edges of each pie with the egg wash and sprinkle the crust with sugar.

Bake for 15 minutes until golden and bubbly. Remove from the oven and allow pies to sit on the pan (they will leak a little juice while baking, but this is fine!) for 5 minutes. Remove to a platter and allow to cool.

Serve warm or at room temperature with a dollop of whipped cream.
