Ingredients

For the vegan pie crust:

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup Coconut Oil cool enough to be solid
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 Tbsp sugar
  • 1/3-1/2 cup ice water

For the mixed berry filling:

  • 3 cups (about 4 stalks) blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries (or any fruit of your choosing)
  • 1/8 cup sugar
  • 1 lemon zested, and half juiced
  • sugar for finishing

Instructions

For the vegan pie crust:

  • Place flour, salt, and sugar in bowl of a food processor. Pulse to combine.
  • Add coconut oil and pulse until mixture is crumbly and sticks together when you squeeze it. Pulse in 1/3 cup water, or until hold together when you make a handful of it.
  • Turn dough out on to a clean and dry surface. Shape it in to a disk, and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 2 hours.
  • When ready to use, remove from refrigerator at least 30 minutes prior to use, to take the chill off the dough making it easier to roll out.
  • Roll dough out to about 1/8 inch thickness, taking care to not rip dough. If dough starts piecing apart, patch the tears if you can, but remember that the best pies are very imperfect.
  • Carefully transfer dough to a parchment lined baking sheet. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

For the mixed berry filling:

  • Combine berries, lemon zest and juice, and sugar in a large bowl, tossing to combine.
  • Spread berries over pie crust, allowing a 1 to 1/2 inch perimeter of dough. Fold dough gently over berries, allowing for an opening in the middle where the berries will be uncovered. You're just making a rustic crust with the dough. Fold and pinch as you go.
  • In a small bowl, crack egg and add a splash of water. Whisk until combined. Using a pastry brush, brush the top of the dough with the egg wash. Top with sugar.
  • Bake for 50-60 minutes, until edges of galette are browned, and berries are cooked through.
  • Allow to cool slightly. Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
