Fresh seasonal fruit desserts are our favorite. And strawberry season has arrived!! This galette is simple, sweet and satisfying, oil-free and does not contain dairy, eggs, or refined sugar. It’s rustic and sweet, but not too sweet. And would be lovely with a little cashew or coconut cream for a more decadent dessert.

Ingredients You Need for Strawberry Galette [Vegan]
For the Crust:
- 1/2 cup whole wheat flour and 1/2 cup and 4 tablespoons unbleached white or whole wheat pastry flour
- 3 tablespoons almond flour
- 1 tablespoon dry sweetener (date or coconut sugar)
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 plus more (1 tablespoon up to 1/4 cup) unsweetened plant milk
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened cashew yogurt
For the Filling:
- 3 cups sliced strawberries
- 1 tablespoon dry sweetener
- 3 large pitted dates, chopped (medjool or any kind)
- fresh lemon juice and zest, about 1/2 a lemon
- 1 tablespoon arrowroot or organic corn starch
How to Prepare Strawberry Galette [Vegan]
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Slice strawberries and toss in a bowl with sweetener, chopped dates, lemon and arrowroot or cornstarch and stir to coat. Allow to sit while you make the crust. In a large bowl mix in the dry ingredients. Using a fork, mix in the yogurt until you have clumps. Stir in 1/4 cup plant milk and using your hands, begin to form a ball. If it’s too dry, add plant milk 1 T at a time until you have a soft dough. Knead a few times so the ingredients come together but don’t overdo it!
- Sprinkle a little flour on parchment paper on a baking sheet. Take your ball of dough and place it in the center of the paper. Using your hands, press and flatten the dough into a circle or oval, then roll it out with a rolling pin (or bottle!) until it is flat and even all around. Spoon the fruit into the middle and spread evenly, leaving an inch of dough uncovered around the perimeter.
- Carefully fold up the outer circle, and pinch together as you go around so that the dough covers the fruit by about an inch or a little more. Brush the fold of dough with plant milk and sprinkle with dry sweetener.
- Place the baking sheet on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 40 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
