A simple gluten-free, meatless meal. The dough for this vegetarian galette can be made a couple days ahead of time. Allow the dough to sit for 10 minutes outside the refrigerator before rolling it out.
1canartichoke heartsdrained, rinsed, and quartered
1teaspoonlemon juice
pinchof cayenne pepper
salt and pepper to taste
2tablespoonsgoat cheesedivided
2tablespoonsunsweetened almond milk
Instructions
For the dough:
In a large bowl, combine flours, arrowroot starch, sucanat, psyllium husk powder, and salt. Whisk to combine. Scatter slices of butter over flour mixture. Using a pastry blender, two knives, or your hands, cut in butter into mixture until butter is pea-sized.
Add ice water, dribbling one tablespoon at a time, and stirring after each tablespoon added, until the dough comes together when squeezed with your hands.
Shape the dough into a ball and flatten into about a 6-inch disc on a piece of plastic wrap. Wrap the dough completely and chill for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator. Allow dough to soften outside of refrigerator for 10 minutes prior to rolling it out.
Assembling galette:
Heat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
In a large nonsticks skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic, stirring occasionally for about one minute. Add spinach, stirring occasionally until it starts to cook down. Once spinach has cooked down, add artichoke hearts, lemon juice, cayenne pepper, and salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Remove from heat. With one tablespoon of goat cheese, sprinkle bits of cheese over mixture. Set aside.
When dough is ready to roll out, sprinkle extra sorghum flour on a piece of parchment paper, as well as rubbing some on your rolling pin. Roll dough out on parchment until it is about 12-14 inches in diameter. Mend any cracks or tears by pressing them back together with your fingers. Sprinkle remaining goat cheese over center of rolled-out dough, leaving close to a 2-inch border. Give the spinach-artichoke mixture a quick stir to incorporate the goat cheese. The goat cheese should be somewhat melty at this point. Spread spinach-artichoke mixture on top of galette dough, again keeping a 2-inch border free.
Gently fold the edges of the dough over the spinach-artichoke mixture, pleating as you go. With a pastry brush, brush edges and top of galette dough with almond milk. Transfer galette and parchment to a baking sheet.
Bake for about 40 minutes or until dough starts to become golden brown.
When galette is done baking, slice into triangles and serve warm.
