Recipe
This Grilled Peach Galette is a rustic, summery dessert that combines the natural sweetness of peaches with a flaky, buttery crust. Perfect for outdoor gatherings or a cozy night in, this recipe is simple yet impressive, offering a delightful balance of flavors and textures.
Ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 3-4 tablespoons ice water
- 3-4 ripe peaches, sliced
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- Optional: vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for serving
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, mix flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Add cold butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to combine until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the grill to medium heat. Toss peach slices with brown sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Grill peaches for 2-3 minutes per side until slightly caramelized. Set aside.
- Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Arrange grilled peaches in the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold the edges over the peaches, pleating as you go. Brush the crust with egg wash.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown. Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes:
- For a gluten-free version, use a gluten-free flour blend.
- If grilling isn’t an option, you can skip grilling the peaches and use them fresh.

What to Serve With This Recipe
I love pairing this grilled peach galette with fresh summer salads, as their crispness balances the dessert’s sweetness perfectly. A chilled glass of light white wine, like a Sauvignon Blanc, adds a invigorating touch to the meal. It’s a simple combo that makes the whole experience feel extra special.
Fresh Summer Salads
Nothing complements a grilled peach galette quite like a fresh summer salad—it’s like a match made in food heaven! I love tossing together crisp greens, juicy cherry tomatoes, and crunchy cucumbers. A light vinaigrette with lemon or herbs adds just the right brightness. Sometimes I’ll throw in some peppery arugula or sweet strawberries for extra flair. It’s simple, invigorating, and balances the galette’s richness perfectly.
Light White Wines
When you’re enjoying a grilled peach galette, pairing it with a crisp, light white wine can make the experience even more special. I love a chilled Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio—their bright acidity balances the sweetness of the peaches. A Moscato, with its fruity notes, also works wonders. These wines are invigorating, not too heavy, and let the dessert shine. Cheers to a perfect summer treat!
