Oats Free Classic Savory Galette Dough
A flaky, buttery galette dough is one of those foundational recipes every home baker should have in their back pocket, and this one delivers serious results with just a handful of pantry staples. The secret is keeping everything cold — chilled butter, ice water, and a quick rest in the fridge — so those pea-sized butter pockets stay intact and create that signature shatter-crisp crust when baked. A small splash of apple cider vinegar in the water helps relax the gluten just enough to keep the dough tender without making it tough to work with. For anyone avoiding oats, this dough is naturally free of them from the start — no swaps needed, no label-checking required, just straightforward all-purpose flour doing exactly what it's supposed to do. It rolls out beautifully into a rustic round that's ready to cradle whatever sweet or savory filling you have in mind. Whether you're going for caramelized onions and cheese or a pile of summer stone fruit, this dough holds its shape and folds without cracking. Make it once and you'll find yourself reaching for this recipe every time a galette craving strikes.
