Tips for Making the Best Gluten-Free Vegan Galettes
- For gluten-free vegan mini galettes pictured here, use my Gluten-Free Vegan Sorghum Flour Pie Crust Dough Recipe. Or purchase pie crust dough of choice!
- I think fresh blackberries provide the best flavor alongside fresh kiwi, but in a pinch frozen berries will work!
- Maple syrup can be replaced with coconut sugar, raw honey or a sugar-free sweetener such as Lakanto.
- The ground ginger really complements and enhances the kiwi, but it can be omitted or replace with ground cinnamon if need be.
- These galettes taste best straight out of the oven but will keep lightly covered at room temperature for up to 36 hours or in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- To re-heat, simply place in a 350 F/180 C oven until warmed throughout.

Mini Gluten Free Kiwi Galettes with Blackberries (Vegan)
Ingredients
- 1 pre-prepared pie crust I use my gluten free vegan pie crust
- 12 ounces fresh blackberries approx. 2 1/2 cups
- 1 kiwi peeled & chopped (+ 1 more for optional garnishing)
- 5 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
Instructions
- Combine berries, kiwi, maple syrup in ginger in a large bowl. Mix and mash a little, set aside.
- Divide pie crust dough into four equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball.
- Preheat oven to 400 F/ 205 C.
- On a parchment lined cutting board or counter, take one dough ball at a time and roll out into a small circle (see images above in post), about 1/4 inch thick or alternatively, use your fingers to press the dough out into circles. Repeat with remaining dough on same sheet of parchment.
- Transfer parchment paper (dough circles and all) to a cookie sheet.
- Spoon 1/4 of your prepared berry filling into the center of each dough round.
- Working quickly, fold the sides of each dough circle toward the center of each galette. This is not supposed to be very neat, this is a rustic pie – so do not fret if it gets messy. Just try your best to fold the edges up, and use the warmth of your hands to press and patch any holes.
- Place your prepared galettes into your preheated oven.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until bottoms and edges are turnig golden.
- Let cool before serving, and optionally serve with fresk kiwi slices.
- Enjoy!
I say yes to these Galettes – especially with the optional kiwi! The color contrast is just beautiful and the flavor combination has to be out of this world!
Not only are these bright and beautiful but the combination of flavors has me so intrigued! Pinning this and hoping to find some good blackberries soon.
Wow, this is a flavor combination I NEVER would have thought of. I’m so intrigued. Definitely pinning this to try later!
I love galettes!! These are adorable since they’re mini sized 🙂 I never have kiwi, but I totally want to try it in this
