Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh or frozen strawberries
  • ½ cup sugar
  • Several thyme sprigs
  • 1¼ inch coin size piece fresh ginger optional
  • 1 tablespoon tapioca starch
  • Pinch of kosher salt
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon tapioca starch
  • 1½ cups almond flour not ground almonds
  • ½ cup tapioca starch
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

Strawberry Filling:

  • Simmer strawberries, sugar, thyme, ginger, tapioca, salt and 2 tablespoons of water in a small saucepan, stirring frequently, until berries are mushy and thick. 
  • Mash berries with a fork or potato masher and cook until very thick and jammy.
  • Chill completely.
  • Strawberry Topping:
  • In a small bowl, toss berries, sugar and tapioca starch together. Set aside.

Galette:

  • Pulse almond flour, tapioca, sugar, salt and evoo in a food processor. Add 1 egg and process until mixture pulls together.
  • Flatten dough into a disc and wrap in parchment paper. Chill for 1 hour or overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. 
  • Roll dough between 2 sheets of parchment paper to ¼ inch thickness. Remove top sheet of parchment and place bottom parchment and flattened dough on a baking sheet.
  • Schmear strawberry filling in the center of dough, leaving 1½ inch from the edge without filling.
  • Arrange strawberry topping on top of filling. Fold galette edges toward center, leaving a 3-inch opening. The dough will crack and resist this treatment. Pinch it back together and show it who’s boss!
  • Whisk remaining egg and brush it on dough, then sprinkle 1 tablespoon of sugar on top. Bake at 375°F for 25 minutes until golden brown. Cool completely before cutting and serving.
