Blackberries and Brie?  Yes please!  I can’t think of anything I was craving more than this pairing this weekend.  This galette is so delicious, super easy to make, and it looks gorgeous, too!

INGREDIENTS

2 tbsp dried culinary lavender
3 tbsp warm water
1 sheet puff pastry
1 8 oz. wheel of brie
2 cups fresh blackberries washed
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1/2 cup honey plus more for drizzling
1 egg, whisked with a splash of water
Raw sugar (optional)

DIRECTIONS

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F or follow the instructions on the puff pastry or pie crust packaging.

  • Thinly slice the brie.

  • Unwrap the puff pastry sheet and place it onto a parchment lined baking sheet.

  • Begin to layer the brie slices in the middle of the dough, leaving 2-3 inches around the perimeter.

  • Place the blackberries on top and in between the brie slices.

  • Fold the edges of the dough slightly over the edges of the filling, encasing all the way around. Drizzle honey on top.  

  • Brush egg wash on the edges.  If you like, you can sprinkle a little raw sugar on top of the egg washed edge.

  • Place thyme on top of the galette and bake for 22-25 minutes, or according to the puff pastry package instructions.

  • If the galette isn't golden brown by 25 minutes of bake time, bump the heat to 400 degrees and cook an additional 5-7 minutes.

  • Remove the galette from the heat and drizzle honey on top.
