French Almond-Citrus Galette with Honeyed Mascarpone

Ingredients

• 1 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
• 1 cup almond flour
• 1 cup unsalted butter, cold and diced
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons ice water

• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon lemon zest, finely grated
• 1 tablespoon orange zest, finely grated
• 1 cup sliced almonds, toasted
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

• 1 cup mascarpone cheese
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method

1. 01
   In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, almond flour, and salt. Add the cold diced butter and use a pastry cutter to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
2. 02
   Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently until the dough begins to come together. Form the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
3. 03
   Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface into a circle about 12 inches in diameter.
4. 04
   Transfer the rolled dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle the granulated sugar over the dough, leaving a 2-inch border.
5. 05
   In a small bowl, mix the lemon zest, orange zest, and toasted almonds. Distribute this mixture evenly over the sugared area of the dough.
6. 06
   Drizzle the melted butter over the filling, then fold the edges of the dough over the filling to create a rustic border.
7. 07
   Bake the galette in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
8. 08
   While the galette bakes, prepare the honeyed mascarpone by whisking together the mascarpone cheese, honey, and vanilla extract in a small bowl.
9. 09
   Remove the galette from the oven and let it cool slightly. Serve warm, topped with a generous spoonful of honeyed mascarpone.
