Savory Vegetable Galette

Make a roasted vegetable galette filled with roasted vegetables for an elegant weeknight or holiday dinner. This savory vegetable galette recipe is so easy and delicious. You can make a large galette or individual ones for your guests.

After craving pizza all week, I made a savory vegetable galette tonight. Like a tart, galette refers to a rustic, free-form, single-crust pastry similar to a pizza. I love savory galette recipes because they are easy to make and don't require anything fancy.  The crust folds up quickly without any specific design.

My roasted vegetable galette is aesthetically pretty; it's perfect for a casual, fancy, or holiday dinner. I added stars from the extra dough to give it a little holiday flair and made a cranberry balsamic glaze for the holidays. 

The savory galette is one of my family's favorites as a festive holiday main dish. 

Roasted Vegetable Galette Ingredients

Although I selected various my favorite vegetables, and vegetables work well with a galette. The trick, however, is to separate the vegetables based on their roasting time. 

For instance, the oil-free pizza dough, or vegan puff pastry, cooks for 20 minutes. Therefore, some vegetables are roasted before adding them to the galette, while others are added before baking the vegetable galette.

Roasted Vegetables

• Cauliflower: Cauliflower is considered a superfood because of its nutrient-rich content. It is high in fiber and vitamins B and C. It also contains high concentrations of carotenoids (antioxidants) and glucosinolates.
• Broccoli: Broccoli is a great source of antioxidants and may enhance your health by reducing inflammation, improving blood sugar control, boosting immunity, and promoting heart health. Why Is Broccoli a Superfood? Fiber, vitamin C, vitamin K, iron, and potassium.
• Carrots: Carrots are a fiber and vitamin C source, contributing to their heart-protective properties.
• Brussel Sprouts: Brussels sprouts are high in fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, making them nutritious for your diet. They may also have added health benefits, including decreased inflammation and improved immune system health.
• Mushrooms: Mushrooms pack a nutritional punch. They are loaded with vitamins, promote a healthy immune system, and boost bone health. That's why they are considered a superfood.

Vegetables Added Before Baking the Galette

• Asparagus: Asparagus is an excellent source of vitamin K and folate and a good source of vitamin A, vitamin C, riboflavin, and thiamin. Vitamin K is essential in blood clotting and bone-building.
• Red Onions: Red onions are full of sulfur compounds that protect the body from ulcers and various cancers. They can also fight bacteria in the urinary tract. The most important of these compounds is called quercetin - an antioxidant compound that could provide protection against cancer, heart disease, and allergies.
• Zucchini: Zucchini is packed with beneficial nutrients, including Vitamins C and A, potassium, folate, and fiber. All contribute to a healthy heart by decreasing the risk of stroke, reducing high blood pressure, and lowering cholesterol
• Tomatoes: Tomatoes are the major dietary source of the antioxidant lycopene, which has been linked to many health benefits, including reduced risk of heart disease and cancer. They are also a great source of vitamin C, potassium, folate, and vitamin K.

Roasted Vegetable Galette Ingredient Substitutions

• Choose any preferred vegetable combinations.
• Broccoli substitutes cauliflower in recipes.
• Yellow or white onions are an excellent option if you don't care for red onions.

How to Roast the Vegetables

• Once cut, separate the vegetables that require a longer roasting time, rinse them in water, and season them with Herbs De Provence Seasoning or seasoning of choice. 
• Since I don't cook with oil, rinsing the cut vegetables allows the seasoning to stick to the vegetables. 
• Because these particular vegetables take 35-40 minutes to roast, make sure the vegetables are the same size. 
• Then, roast the vegetables for 15-20 minutes (half the time), so they will continue to roast inside the galette dough. 

How to Make the Galette Dough

If you want an oil-free option, try my oil-free pizza dough or use a vegan pastry dough found in your grocery store freezer section. 

Vegan Puff Pastry Brands

• Wholly Wholesome Organic Pie Dough
• Pepperidge Farm Frozen Puff Pastry
• Orgran Gluten-free Pastry Mix
• Pampas Puff Pastry Sheets
• Jus-Rol Puff Pastry

While working with dough, roll it on parchment paper to save time and stress. The dough will easily transfer to the baking sheet before cooking. 

After baking, the parchment paper allows the galette to slide nicely onto the serving platter. 

• Spoon the half-roasted vegetables into the center of the rolled-out dough. 
• Next, add the uncooked asparagus, onions, zucchini, and tomatoes to the roasted vegetables. 

Baking the Savory Vegetable Galette Recipe

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Arrange the vegetables in the center and gently fold the dough around the vegetables.
• There is no need to be fancy or create a design; fold it around the vegetables, and create a border. 

• If you have extra dough, use a cookie cutter, make shapes (holiday or season-themed), and place the shapes on top.
• Bake for 20 minutes or until the dough is brown.
• Remove from the oven and allow to sit for a few minutes.
• Cut into slices, like a pizza, with a pizza cutter.
• Place a small amount of cranberry drizzle on a plate and drag the spoon through it, making a line (optional)

Cranberry Balsamic Glaze (Optional)

I decided to make a cranberry balsamic glaze for a bit of holiday cheer to serve on my savory galette.

Cranberry Balsamic Glaze Ingredients

• Fresh or Frozen Cranberries: Cranberries are in season right now, so I bought fresh cranberries. However, frozen cranberries work well.
• Balsamic Vinegar: I used dark balsamic vinegar for the glaze.
• Maple Syrup: Pure maple syrup is a fabulous way to add sweetness to a sauce without using sugar.
• Water: The water helps break down the cranberries while they cook in the pan on the stove.

Cranberry Balsamic Glaze Ingredient Substitutions

• Use different berries, such as blackberries, raspberries or blueberries.
• Try white balsamic vinegar if you don't have dark on hand.
• Date syrup or agave are other options for a sweetener.
• Mustard dipping sauce is another one of my favorite sauces for the savory vegetable galette.
• Yum yum sauce is a creamy sauce that tastes incredible with roasted vegetables.
• Blackberry dijon sauce is used when blackberries are in season. The dijon combined with the blackberries creates a sweet yet savory sauce option.
• Maple dijon dressing is perfect for the fall season.
• Lemon basil dressing is my favorite way to enjoy the vegetable galette recipe in the summertime.

Like a pizza, cut the savory galette with a pizza cutter and drizzle it with cranberry balsamic glaze. I added a fancy strip under each piece for the extra sweetest.

Tips

• For a make-ahead tip, the pastry can be made and refrigerated two days in advance or frozen for up to two weeks in advance.
• The assembled galette can go straight from the freezer to the oven.
• While preheating the oven pop your galette into the freezer for 10 minutes; this will ensure that the galette won't lose its shape while baked, which might result in a sad-looking baked pie and leakage.
• The galette should bake until the crust is a deep golden brown and the fruit is bubbly and cooked. This usually takes about 30 minutes or so. Transfer the galette, parchment, and all to a wire rack and let it cool completely before slicing.
• Try adding different vegetals to create unique galettes. Or, try a savory apple galette recipe, or use peaches or your favorite berries.
• A galette may be served hot or cold cut into slices.
• Or, make smaller-sized galettes for individual servings.

Try this roasted vegetable galette recipe this holiday season for a quick yet elegant meal.
