For all strawberry fans out there take a look at our Rustic Strawberry and Cream Cheese Galette. It’s like a beautiful mashup of a strawberry pie and a cheesecake! The strawberry season is upon us and besides eating them and adding them to my breakfast cereal, I love using them in summer desserts! My Strawberry Cheesecake Vatrushka Buns are the taste of the childhood for me, and the best summer breakfast you can imagine. Over the years I’ve shared quite a few strawberry recipes on my website. Here are some of my favourites.
Strawberry Recipes
This Eton Mess Semifreddo is my take on the famous British strawberry, meringue and whipped cream pudding made into a frozen treat. No ice cream maker is needed. Very easy and refreshing in the heat of summer. My no bake Strawberry Meringue Cheesecake is another great example of a summer dessert, that will keep you cool and happy! If you are looking for a special occasion dessert, our Chocolate Strawberry Mousse Cake is it! Not terribly difficult to make but looks like it came from a fancy bakery! The best thing is all those recipes use fresh, unprocessed strawberries! Summer goodness at its finest!
Strawberry Galette Recipe
I am a big fan of galettes as I love the rustic look of them plus they are so easy! This Yellow Plum and Blueberry Galette is one of my favourite things at the end of a summer meal. Or Galette with Grilled Eggplant and Roasted Red Pepper for when I’m feeling like something savoury. Strawberries are perfect for a galette as they take very little time to cook in the oven. Because they don’t need pre-cooking, using them with pastry is a match made in heaven. The pastry recipe I am sharing is very special. It’s light, crispy and flaky! It comes from one of my favourite Russian cookbooks Please to the Table by Anya von Bremzen. I’ve adapted it slightly for my own taste. Sour cream makes this flaky pastry pleasantly tart, which contrasts nicely with the sweetness of a fruit filling in pies and galettes.
