Recipe characteristics

  • Dietary requirements: plant-based (dairy-free, egg-free), gluten-free, nut-free, and soy-free.

Notes on ingredients

You can find a complete list of ingredients with exact amounts and instructions in the recipe card below.
  • Bob’s Red Mill gluten free 1-to-1 baking flour: This is my favorite, go-to gluten free flour blend, as you can use it in everything from cakes and cookies to brownies and pie crusts.
  • Margarine spread: You can use vegan butter instead.
  • Coconut sugar: It can be subbed with brown sugar or regular white sugar.
  • Fig jam: Apricot jam serves as a good substitute in place of fig jam.
  • Figs: Select figs with smooth, unbroken skin. The fruit should be soft to the touch, but not mushy.

How to make it

You can find a complete list of ingredients with exact amounts and instructions in the recipe card below.

Step 1

Preheat oven to 180° C.

Step 2

Combine gluten-free flour and coconut sugar in a bowl. Add diced margarine and 4 tablespoons of ice-cold water and mix it with your hands until the dough begins to stick together.

Note: Be careful not to add too much water because the dough will be too sticky to roll out. If your dough is too sticky you can just add a bit more flour.

Step 3

Place the dough into the fridge to chill for at least half an hour.

Step 4

Remove the dough from the fridge and divide it into two individual portions.

Step 5

Using a rolling pin, roll out each portion into a circle. Be careful not to roll the edges out too thin.

Step 6

Transfer the parchment paper with the rolled out crusts onto a baking sheet.

Step 7

Spread the fig jam evenly onto the rolled out crust, leaving a jam-free border around the filling.

Step 8

Place fig slices on top of the jam in a circular pattern. Continue until the jam is covered with figs.

Step 9

Carefully fold up the edges of the dough. Instead of lifting the edges of your dough with your fingers, try lifting it with the parchment paper or gently with a knife.

Note: Since the dough is gluten-free, it will crumble or crack. If the dough cracks or tears, just put it back together and press it gently with your fingers until the cracks are gone. The important part is to avoid any cracks so the filling does not leak during baking.

Step 10

Bake until the filling is bubbly and the crust is golden brown, for about 25-30 minutes.

Step 11

Remove from oven, and using parchment paper, transfer to a cooling rack to cool.

Step 12

Cut each galette into 4 pieces and enjoy!
