Peach Rhubarb Galette combines rhubarb’s tartness with peaches’ juicy sweetness in a puff pastry instead of the traditional pie crust. The result is a quick and easy handheld dessert or breakfast pasty.

SIS (Simple is Smart) tip:
This recipe uses instant clear gel as the thickner for the peach and rhubarb juice. I love this product. I instantly thickens either hot or cold liquid no heating required. I use it in pies, soups, gravies, and even some drinks. It is flavorless.
What do you need for the Peach Rhubarb Galette?
For the crust, you can make a recipe for puff pastry or purchase ready-made puff pastry. For this recipe, I purchased the puff pastry. The filling is peaches, rhubarb, sugar, thicker (instant clear gel) salt, and cinnamon.
Let's make the Peach Rhubarb Galette:
Filling for the Peach Rhubarb Galette:
Peel and slice the peaches and dice the rhubarb into 1/2 inch pieces.
Add the clear-gel, cinnamon, and salt to the sugar. Mix well, then add the mixture to the peaches and rhubarb. The clear-gel thickens the liquid. This makes the galettes easy to fill. No runny juice going places it doesn’t belong.
Roll out the puff pastry into a 12 X 12-inch square and cut four circles either five or six inches across. Reroll the leftovers and make one more circle. Repeat with the other piece of dough.
Filling and Shaping the Peach Rhubarb Galettes:
- Place a thin layer of egg wash on the top and bottom edge of the circle. Fold the sides of the circle up and over the filling to form a rectangle. Press the overlapping ends together to seal. Fold the top down and the bottom up over the filling. This creates a “rectangular box” of dough for the filling. Brush each galette with egg wash and sprinkle with sparkling sugar.
- Fill all of the ten circles. Bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a preheated oven at 375-degrees F for 30 – 35 minutes. Rotate once halfway through the baking process.
- Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a mini scoop of ice cream.
- Recrisp leftovers in the air fryer at 300-degrees for 8-10 minutes.

- Fold the top down and bottom up over the filling. This encloses the filling into a mini triangle. Seal the corners with egg wash to keep the galette from opening up during the baking process.
