Description

This rustic Rhubarb Galette is a beautifully simple dessert that highlights the natural tartness of rhubarb with a touch of sweetness and warm ginger notes. Wrapped in a flaky, golden crust and topped with a crunchy amaretto cookie crumble, this free-form tart is easy to make yet impressive enough for any gathering. Perfect for spring and summer baking, it delivers a delightful balance of texture and flavor in every bite.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb rhubarb, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ginger juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 (14.1 oz) package refrigerated pie crusts
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 3 tablespoons turbinado sugar, divided
  • 2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 12 amaretto cookies, crushed

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, toss rhubarb with granulated sugar, ginger juice, and salt. Let sit for 10 minutes.
  3. Roll out the pie crust onto the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Sprinkle crushed amaretto cookies evenly over the center, leaving a 2-inch border.
  5. Arrange the rhubarb mixture on top of the cookie layer and dot with butter.
  6. Fold the edges of the crust over the filling, pleating as needed.
  7. Brush the crust with beaten egg and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons turbinado sugar.
  8. Bake for 35–40 minutes, until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbling.
  9. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for extra indulgence.
  • If rhubarb is very tart, add an extra tablespoon of sugar to the filling.
  • You can substitute crushed biscotti if amaretto cookies are unavailable.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat in the oven for best texture.
