Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 (125 mL) cup mascarpone cheese, at room temperature
  • 1 egg separated
  • 3 (45 mL) tbsp brown sugar, divided
  • 2 (10 mL) tsp lemon zest
  • 1/2 (2 mL) tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 refrigerated rolled pie pastry 7 oz/200 g
  • 1 (250 mL) cup E.D.SMITH® Triple Fruits Blueberry, Raspberry, Blackberry Pie Filling
  • 3/4 (175 mL) cup raspberries
  • 1 (15 mL) tbsp cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
  • 1 (15 mL) tbsp turbinado sugar
  • 1/2 (125 mL) cup 35% whipping cream

Directions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Beat together mascarpone cheese, egg yolk, 1 tbsp (15 mL) brown sugar, lemon zest and vanilla until blended; set aside. Whisk egg white with 1 1/2 tsp (7 mL) water; set aside.
  • Place pie pastry on parchment paper–lined baking sheet. Spread mascarpone mixture over pie crust, leaving 1-inch (2.5 cm) border. Spread Blueberry, Raspberry, Blackberry PieFilling over top of mascarpone layer. Dot with butter.
  • Fold edges of pastry toward centre, overlapping slightly to create pleated border. Brush pastry with egg white wash; sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
  • Bake in lower third of oven for 28 to 32 minutes or until filling is bubbling and pastry is golden brown. Let cool for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, using electric mixer, beat cream until stiff peaks form. Beat in remaining brown sugar. Slice galette into wedges; serve warm or at room temperature with dollop of whipped cream.

Tips

  1. Mix fresh berries into the pie filling before baking or layer more on top after baking for an extra burst of berry.
  2. Substitute cream cheese for mascarpone cheese if desired.
  3. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
  4. Make-ahead: Refrigerate for up to 2 days. Bring to room temperature before serving.
