Ingredients
  

For the crust:

  • 1 ½ cups gluten free flour blend * see note
  • teaspoon salt
  • 8 tablespoons unsalted butter cold
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • ¼ cup water

For the filling:

  • 2 cups chopped ripe plums
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch see note

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350º F.
  • In a large bowl, add your gluten free flour and salt and whisk to blend.
  • Cut in the cold butter with a pastry blender.
  • Add the lemon juice, water, and one egg to a bowl and whisk. Add this to the flour-butter mixture and work with your hands into a dough ball.
  • Roll the dough on wax paper to 1/4 inch thickness.
  • Cut up your plums and throw the pits away.
  • Put the plums in a bowl and add the sugar, lemon juice, and starch. Mix well.
  • Pour the plum mixture onto the flat crust.
  • Fold the edges up around the fruit.
  • Brush the crust with egg white.
  • Bake for 30 minutes.
  • Top with vanilla ice cream.

Notes

  1. You can substitute arrowroot or tapioca starch for cornstarch.
  2. I have tested this recipe with King Arthur Measure for Measure GF, Bob's Red Mill 1 to 1 GF blend, and Cup4Cup in this recipe. That doesn't mean others will not work; I just have not tested other flours.
  3. If your gluten free flour blend doesn’t contain Xanthan Gum or Guar Gum, please add 1 teaspoon.
  4. You can use any fruit or berries in this recipe.
  5. Optional: after you brush egg white on the crust, add coarse sugar.
  6. This gluten free plum galette will keep up to 4 days in an airtight container or up to 4 months in the freezer.

SPECIAL NOTE

Please know that every gluten free flour blend has a different starch to grain ratio. If you use a blend I didn't test, you may need to adjust your moisture levels in your baked goods.
