It is the perfect time of year to make a Berry Rhubarb dessert. Both of these foods are in their peak season right now. Here is a simple and delicious way to enjoy them. Feel free to substitute any berries that you have. Frozen also work well too...

Rhubarb Berry Galette

Galette Crust

3/4 cup unbleached flour
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
pinch of salt
1 Tbsp organic sugar
1/2 cup cold butter, cut into pieces
about 1/2 cup ice water

Mix the flours, salt and sugar together. Cut butter into flour with a pastry cutter or fingers until it resembles a coarse meal. Add ice water a couple tablespoons at a time, and mix until batter just stays together. Try not to overwork or get too wet.

Make it into a ball and cover and chill it in the fridge.


Filling

1 3/4 cup rhubarb
2 1/2 cup berries
zest of 1 lemon
1 tbsp lemon juice
2-3 tbsp honey or sugar
1 tbsp corn starch

Mix all of the above ingredients together.
Roll out dough into a 1/4 inch rustic circle.
Pour filling onto the center, leaving an inch border.
Fold over dough, to male a 3/4 inch crust.
Mix up an egg and use a pastry brush to glaze the crust.
Sprinkle with course sugar.

Bake at 400 for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden and bubbly.

Let it cool a bit and...
