MIX THE BLUEBERRY FILLING.In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, lemon juice, vanilla, and salt.

Then fold the blueberries into your sugar mixture and set aside.

SLICE THE PUFF PASTRY DOUGH.Unroll the puff pastry dough on a cutting board, sprinkling a light dusting of flour under the dough if it starts to stick. Cut the puff pastry into four equal squares. Trim and round the corners just a little for each square of dough, making them the same shape as an app icon.

PREPARE THE DOUGH FOR THE FILLING.Beat your egg with the water. This is called an egg wash. It’s used to help pastries and bread get a brown crust. Brush the egg wash around the outside of each pastry square. Place 1/4 cup of blueberry mixture in the middle of each square.

FOLD THE DOUGH AND PRESS IT FIRMLY TOGETHER.Fold the outside edge of the dough in, pressing with a spoon to make an edge crust like a pizza crust. Turn the galette and keep folding in the edge around the whole outside. The folds should be about 1/2 inch of dough. Repeat this for all four galettes.

BAKE THE GALETTES.Using a silicone brush, brush the entire crust of the galettes with the egg mixture. Sprinkle the edges of your galettes with a little sugar. Bake in the oven for 13 to 15 minutes, or until the galettes begin to turn a light golden-brown color on the edges. Let the galettes cool and enjoy!

Why This Recipe Works
What makes these Mini Blueberry Galettes truly special is their effortless charm and fantastic flavor. By using readily available frozen puff pastry, you bypass the complexities of making pie crust from scratch, making this a perfect recipe for home cooks of all skill levels. The magic happens as the flaky pastry embraces a vibrant filling of fresh blueberries, brightened with lemon juice and a hint of vanilla, creating a gooey and delicious rustic pie experience in individual portions.
What to Expect
Prepare for a treat that bursts with the sweet-tart essence of summer blueberries, encased in a golden, buttery, and incredibly flaky crust. Each mini galette offers a delightful contrast: a soft, luscious fruit filling against the crisp exterior of the pastry. This recipe promises a fun and engaging baking project, perfect for involving kids, and resulting in individual desserts that your whole family will absolutely love, whether for a special occasion or a weekend indulgence. They are designed to be enjoyed fresh, celebrating the simple pleasure of berries.
Customization & Variations
While this recipe shines with fresh blueberries, you can easily adapt the fruit filling to other fresh berries you have on hand, like raspberries or mixed berries. If your berries are particularly juicy, the optional tablespoon of all-purpose flour can be stirred into the fruit mixture to help thicken the filling, preventing a watery consistency. For a deeper flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or a tiny dash of almond extract alongside the vanilla. You can also sprinkle coarse sugar or turbinado sugar over the crust before baking for extra crunch and sparkle.
Serving & Context
These mini galettes are incredibly versatile, making a perfect sweet ending to any meal as a dessert, or a delightful accompaniment to your morning coffee for breakfast. Serve them warm, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of fresh whipped cream for an ultimate indulgence.
