I am becoming quite the avid baker. If you have read any of my previous post you will notice that I make mention of my Aunt Sonia who is the family resident baker. My banana bread recipe came from her and I added my special touch to it. However my mind is expanding and I am excited to try new things on my own. What I am learning through this process is that your imagination is limitless and it can lead you to the most beautiful creations at times.
To be honest, I created this delectable blueberry cream cheese recipe without knowing that what I was conjuring up in my head was called a galette. I had a box of store bought scone mix and was not impressed with the scone when they were baked.
Like most of my creations, I got the idea for this recipe laying in bed one night dreaming about food. I remembered that I had the rest of the scone mix and knew it needed some help to taste better than the first trial. So I decided to roll out the rest of the scone mix and then top it with some fruits.
You really have to try this beautiful pastry; my very own Blueberry Cream Cheese Galette. I was surprised at how great it tasted.
The blueberries provided a pop and a burst of the just the right amount of sweetness in your mouth, Plus the addition of the cream cheese created a nest for the delicate berries to lay on and prevented the base of the galette from getting soggy. It was sheer perfection:)
My Blueberry Cream Cheese Galette looks like I have been slaving over it but it came together really quickly and the end results speak for itself. Its stunning to look at, delectable and leaves you wanting more.
I had a box of scone mixture that I used for my base. However I have included a scone recipe for you to use or you can try the Pillsbury pie crust. Great on its own but I am sure a scoop of vanilla ice cream may add a extra layer of flavor. And as always, don’t take my word for it, try this recipe and let me know what you think.
