Instructions

  1. Make the galette dough: In a large bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour, salt, and baking powder.
  2. Add the cold vegan butter cubes to the flour mixture. Using a pastry blender or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized pieces.
  3. Add ice water one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently just until the dough starts to come together. Avoid overworking. Form the dough into a disc, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Prepare the filling: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  5. Add minced garlic and stir for 1 minute until fragrant.
  6. Add sliced mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms release moisture and it evaporates, about 8 minutes. Stir in dried thyme.
  7. Add chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Season with gluten-free soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  8. In a medium bowl, combine the softened dairy-free cream cheese and nutritional yeast until smooth. Fold in the mushroom-spinach mixture until combined.
  9. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  10. Roll out the dough between two pieces of parchment paper into a roughly 12-inch circle.
  11. Transfer rolled dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Spread the filling evenly over the dough, leaving a 2-inch border all around.
  12. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, pleating gently to form a rustic edge galette.
  13. Brush the dough edges with almond milk or preferred plant milk.
  14. Bake for 28-30 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and cooked through.
  15. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
  16. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve warm or at room temperature.
  17. To freeze: Wrap cooled galette tightly in plastic wrap and foil. Freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat in a 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven for 20-25 minutes before serving.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make the dough ahead?
Yes. Refrigerate the wrapped galette dough for up to 24 hours before rolling, or freeze it for up to 1 month and thaw it overnight in the refrigerator.
How do I keep the filling from making the crust soggy?
Cook the mushrooms until their liquid evaporates, let the filling cool slightly, and leave a border around the dough so the folded edge can bake through.
Can I use regular dairy ingredients?
Yes, if dairy is safe for your table. Use regular butter, cream cheese, and milk in the same amounts while keeping the flour blend and tamari gluten-free.

Storage and Reheating

Store cooled galette slices in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Freeze the cooled galette tightly wrapped for up to 2 months. Reheat refrigerated or thawed slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a 350°F oven until warm and the crust is lightly crisp.
