- 1/16 tbs (1.13 g) sea salt
- 1/3 cup (60 g) sugar
- 4 tbsp (55 g) butter (Softened, At Room Temperature)
- 2 tbsp (30 g) Orange Blossom Water
- 1 1/4 cup (155 g) flour
- 1/4 cup (60 g) sour cream

EGGWASH
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tbsp (15 g) milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F/180C.
- In a medium sauce pan, heat on medium low the milk, water and sugar together until it starts to boil.
- Remove from the heat and add your softened butter, mix until melted.
- Add your flour, combine with your spatula. This will form a ball. Return to the heat to remove some humidity, keep your spatula moving it around (Maximum 1 minute).
- Then, add the eggs one at the time, ensuring each egg is combined before adding the next one. Add the orange blossom water and heavy whipping cream last.
- Place your Daisy Flexipan Mold on the top of your Medium Perforated Baking Sheet.
- Pour your preparation into your Flexipan®, add your Trinket (1 or 2) and gently flatten your Pâte à Choux. With a fork design the top of your galette and brush it with your egg wash.
- Bake for 45 minutes at 350F/180C. (Every oven heats differently, monitor your galette from 35min). Then, pass it under the grill to give it a caramel color, but keep an eye on it, it heats fast.
- Once your French Galette is out of the oven, let it completely cool down. Then, slide it onto your service plate. Enjoy & Bon Appétit!
