Blackberry Galette with Homemade Vanilla Whipped Cream
Galette:
- 1 pie crust ***store-bought or homemade
- 2 cups of fresh blackberries
- 2 tbsp white sugar, more or less depending on the sweetness of the berries
- 2 tsp cornstarch
- 1 egg, beaten
- Raw sugar
Homemade Whipped Cream:
- 1Â half a pint of whipping cream
- Powdered sugar, to taste

How to Make a Blackberry Galette with Homemade Vanilla Whipped Cream
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a Silpat mat.
Clean the blackberries, then place them in a bowl and sprinkle sugar and cornstarch on top. Gently stir the blackberries until the sugar and corn starch are evenly covering the berries.
Pour the blackberries inside the pie crust, starting one inch from the edge. Fold the edge of the dough over the blackberries.
Brush the dough with the beaten egg. Sprinkle the edges with the raw sugar.
Bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes, or until golden brown.
While the galette is baking, make the whipped cream.
Pour the whipping cream into a large bowl, and add powdered sugar to taste, until the cream is your desired sweetness (I used 2 tablespoons).
Gently remove the seeds from the vanilla pod with the back of your knife, and place them into the whipping cream.
Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat on high until the whipping cream is thick and fluffy.
Remove the galette from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Serve with homemade whipped cream. Enjoy.

Our blackberries were rubbish this year but I bet this will also taste good with cherries of which i have masses in the deep freeze 🙂 Hope the results are good. Diane
For years now blackberries have beat out blueberries in my books. Topped with whipped cream I would be in heaven.
that is just so wrong to make you wait this long?
surely his assistant can read the results?
crazy!!!
I hope its good news too!
MRIs are usually read within 24 hours so I would call her if she doesn’t call you! Fingers crossed!
I just had an MRI too! (long story, will tell you via e-mail.) Did it scare you? I was terrified! I hope you got some good news!
It must be very hard to wait for the results on your MRI, good luck. The galette with homemade whipping cream looks perfect, no wonder it didn’t last long.
What a terrific galette!
Finger Crossed with MRI news, Pam.
