Ingredients
For the galette
-
150g spelt or brown rice flour
-
50g ground almonds
-
50g Natvia natural sweetener
-
1 teaspoon cinnamon
-
50g coconut oil, solid
-
4 tablespoons cold water
For the filling
-
10 plums, stoned and halved
-
3 tablespoons Natvia natural sweetener
-
1 teaspoon cinnamon
-
Juice of ½ a lemon
Method
-
First, make the pastry: Mix together the flour, ground almonds, Natvia natural sweetener and cinnamon in a bowl. Add the solid coconut oil and rub in with your fingers to create a breadcrumb texture. Gradually add the water to form a dough.
-
Roll into a ball then wrap in clingfilm and chill for at least 1 hour.
-
In the meantime, mix together the plums with the Natvia natural sweetener, cinnamon, and lemon juice and set aside.
-
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C and grease and line a large flat baking sheet.
-
Allow the dough to come back to room temperature then roll out on a lightly floured surface until about 1cm thick. Transfer to the baking sheet.
-
Spoon over the fruit mixture over the base leaving a 2 cm border around the edges then use your fingers to roll up the dough roughly around the edges.
-
Brush the sides with a little almond milk then bake in the oven for about 15 minutes then turn down to 160 C and continue baking for another 15 minutes until the pastry is golden. Leave to cool slightly then serve warm or cold.
