    Blueberry Lavender Galette

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

    A rustic blueberry lavender galette to enjoy on a warm spring evening

    I've been obsessing over blueberries lately. If you look at all my recipe ideas, you will see about half of them feature blueberries. Ever since I was a little girl, I've had a special fondness for blueberries. When I was about 6 or 7 years old, my best friend, who was also my neighbor, introduced me to what she called "blueberry cereal," which was basically a bowl of blueberries with sweetned milk. I would beg my mother to buy blueberries whenever she went shopping so I could have blueberry cereal every chance I could get.

    I don't know how long this blueberry cereal craze went, or what made me stop eating it, but blueberries always have a special place in my heart.

    This blueberry lavender galette is the perfect way to bring in Spring

    One of the best flavor pairings for blueberries is lavender (at least in my opinion), which I think was another reason I've been obsessing over this beautiful little berry. I need to bake with more lavender!! This blueberry lavender galette was meant to be and let me tell you, it was such a delicious idea. Words cannot possibly express how freaking delicious this galette is. I mean, the blueberry and lavender come together so beautifully and are perfectly balanced and brightened with the lemon zest and oh my gosh, I ate maybe an entire blueberry lavender galette within the span of 24 hours (I made four of them to make sure the recipe was just right.... I have such a hard job!) and I still crave more.

    Celebrate the warm weather with this blueberry lavender galette

    I turned this into two smaller galettes, but you can easily make it into one larger galette or even divide it into four smaller ones. You know, so you can more easily keep one all to yourself.

      Could I refrigerate the blueberry filling ahead of time before I bake the galette?

        Hi Sam, I've never tried that before with this particular recipe. I imagine that it would be fine. My main concern is that the sugar and salt would draw out the juices in the berries too much, but the refrigeration (and flour) should slow it down enough to allow an overnight stay in the fridge!

      This is deliciously gorgeous, Amanda! I can't wait for blueberry season to get started up here! Lavender and blueberries come into season about the same time, so this is a perfect pairing. I love blueberries too... I'm already dreaming up ways to use them in everything I can! So I can understand why you couldn't say away from this galette! Beautiful!
