Recipe for belgium waffle cookies aka gallettes?

A galette is a free-form tart, so the dough must keep its shape as it bakes and not allow fruit juices to leak through. Cornmeal and sour cream add a nice flavor and texture, while the baking powder helps the crust rise a little as it bakes. Use dough with Plum Galette.





Ingredients


2 cups (475mL) all-purpose flour


1 Tablespoon (15 mL) sugar


1 Tablespoon (15 mL) cornmeal


1/2 teaspoon (2.5 mL) baking powder


1/2 teaspoon (2.5 mL) salt


1 cup (240 mL) unsalted butter, cut into pieces and chilled


2 Tablespoons (30 mL) sour cream


1 to 2 Tablespoons (15-30 mL) ice water


Combine flour, sugar, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt in a bowl or an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Cut in butter until texture resembles coarse meal. Combine sour cream and water and blend in just until dough comes together. Shape into a disc, wrap, and chill for at least 1 hour before using.





Makes: 2 medium free-form tarts or 8 individual galettes.Recipe for belgium waffle cookies aka gallettes?
