Bursting with fresh summer blueberries, sweetened with chamomile infused honey, and made using flakey, buttery, puff pastry, this blueberry galette is truly a summertime treat. It’s beyond delicious, so incredibly easy, and extra pretty. Bonus? You can swap the blueberries for your favorite berry or use a combo of fresh berries! Either way, you can’t go wrong with this galette.
There’s really nothing I love more than food that tastes good and is pretty too. It’s not something that’s easily achievable, but in the summer months, the food is really pretty, full of colors, and delicious. I love it.
Usually when it comes to sweet things, you guys know how I do it, chocolate, chocolate, and more chocolate. It’s pretty obvious though, lately I’ve been slowly changing my ways, and incorporating more fruit based desserts into my life. As you might expect however, I don’t really consider this galette a dessert, more like a sweet breakfast or brunch item, but I’ll let you guys decide what course you’d like to serve this with.
Anyway, to say that I am excited to share this recipe would be an understatement. Oh my gosh, I’m just in love with this galette. It’s so pretty, so delicious, and so easy. It uses one of my favorite summer berries and my favorite edible flower. It’s also served with ice cream, which you know, is always a great idea.
You see? All in all, it’s pretty much just all kinds of perfection.
So let’s talk about the details.
First things first, the chamomile tea infused honey. If you’ve never infused your honey with tea, now is the time to start. It’s not an intense flavor, but lends a really nice flora touch to the galette, and I love the combination of chamomile and blueberries. It’s a simple step, but adds so much. Plus, anytime I infuse a recipe with chamomile, it just gives me an excuse to decorate with chamomile flowers, my all time favorite.
Funny story? I had been mentioning to my dad for weeks and weeks about how much I wanted fresh chamomile flowers. For whatever reason we haven’t been able to find them at our Whole Foods this season and I have been so bummed about it. BUT he was out last week and finally saw some there. He bought all four bunches, knowing I would be SO excited. However, he then went on to pick Asher up from school and take her to the animal shelter, where they often volunteer, walking dogs, etc. Unfortunately, when he returned home he totally forget about the flowers, and left them in the very hot car, overnight, without any water.
They all died. Not gonna lie, I was bummed. Especially since he bought all the chamomile Whole Foods had in stock. I couldn’t even get anymore. I was able to save the few you see in these photos, but other than that, I had to give the rest of the flowers to the goats.
At least they got a nice feeding outta them!
Moving along.
Once the honey is infused with chamomile, toss it with fresh blueberries, and a little lemon. Arrange the berries overtop a sheet of puff pastry, wrap everything up into a cute little pastry packet, and bake until the galette is golden and the blueberries are bursting and beautiful.
Simple as that. How does it taste?
Every bite is bursting with sweet blueberry flavor. THE BEST.
I of course serve this up warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. It’s the only way to do it up, if you ask me.
My hope is that you guys will all come to love this recipe as much as I do. As I mentioned above, you can really use whatever berry you love or have an abundance of this summer. Blackberries, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, or a combo of your favorites, all will work and they’ll be delicious.
I personally think I like the blueberries best, I just thought this was extra good. In fact, I wish I could be eating this instead of frantically preparing to board an airplane tonight for a two-week trip. One week of vacation, one week of work in NYC. Obviously, totally worth all the effort, but man, I wish this galette was in front of me right now.
Lucky for you guys, it can be in front of you in less than an hour if you share my excitement for this dish and get up to make it now. Which you should do, because I mean, everyone needs a good Tuesday treat, you know?
Trust me here. Make this today, tomorrow, this weekend, and all summer long. You’re going to love it.

The perfect slice of blueberry galette.
This was sooooo good, simple and quick to make yet so flavorful!! Thank you – this will be a summer, Mother’s Day staple in our house! We had it for dessert but I could see this being delicious in the morning with a cup of coffee like you mentioned. I cooked mine in a 13″ cast iron, and added a dash of salt and lemon zest to the blueberry filling 🙂 I also subbed pie crust because I didn’t have a puff pastry on hand, and that did effect the cooking time – mine ended up baking an additional 20 mins (maybe I just like my crust ultra crispy though!)
I am really glad this recipe turned out so well for you! Thank you so much for trying this! xTieghan
This sounds amazing! I have a question. Do you think this would work with frozen strawberries or would they get too mushy? i have a bunch in the freezer I need to use up.
Hi Jessica,
Frozen strawberries will work I would just recommend thawing them first. I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
This was so easy to make! I love fruity and sweet things, so it was right up my ally. I dont like ice cream, so I served it with whipped cream instead. This is a very simple beginner-friendly recipe. And making tea from the leftover bags was the perfect touch!
Thank you so much Rachel! I am really glad this turned out so well for you! xTieghan
I’m not the biggest fan of chamomile, could it work to substitute earl grey tea for the honey infusion instead?
HI! Earl grey will be so great! Or you can just omit the tea all together. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe! Thank you! xTieghan
So good! It is not too sweet, which is great! Family preferred it over a similar cobbler that took a day to make!
Thank you Lucy! xTieghan
Curious, could this be made with frozen berries?! Thank you:)
HI! Yes, you can use frozen berries, but cook the tart 10-15 minutes longer to make up for them being frozen. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe. Thanks so much!! xTieghan ?
Made this recipe a few weeks ago with mixed berries and LOVED it so much! Would you change anything (besides maybe baking time) if you cut your puff pastry in half and made two smaller galettes for twice the amount of sharing?!
HI! I would not change anything, just bake a little less time. Making 2 galettes will be great! Please let me know if you have any other questions. So glad you love this recipe. Thanks so much! x Tieghan
I just finished up making this and let me tell you it was a hit in my home!
Quick, easy, and beautiful to photograph.
The chamomile infused tea really does make a difference in flavours. So. Darn. Good.
Thank you so much Bianca!
Oh my gosh! This is AMAZING!!! Easily one of my new favorite recipes. So easy. And delicious! Tagged you on insta. Thanks for sharing your amazing recipes.
Thank you Anastasia!
Excited to make this for brunch this weekend. I have read the comments to bake immediately, but how is this the day after? Worth it to make morning of or is this just as good served room temp on day 2? Thanks!
Hi! This is best warm out of the oven, but the leftovers are just as delicious on day 1 and 2! It’s really up to you how you would like to serve. Please let me know if you have other questions. Hope you love this recipe! Thanks! 🙂
This galette is everything! Blueberries and chamomile sound so delicious together!
Thank you! I am so glad you like this and I hope you try it!
I just love your recipes. I just found your site today on Instagram and I couldn’t wait to try many of the delicious sounding recipes. We had the Brown butter scallops (chicken had no scallops) corn with alvacado salad for dinner. My husband loved the flavors. I loved that it was quick fresh tasting and delicious. One Pan!! Tomorrow I’m trying the blackberry cake with white chocolate icing. Next on my list your Book. Congratulations on your take of seasonal fresh delicious tasting recipes. I can’t wait to try many more.

Wow, made this recipe on Father’s Day and it was a huge success! The flavors were amazing with the blueberries and the honey and chamomile and everyone loved it! We added some vanilla bean ice cream on top. This was an easy recipe to create as there are only a few steps to do. Thanks for the great recipe Tieghan, I will definitely be making this again for another summer party!
Thank you Joshua! I am so glad you loved this recipe!
