Instructions

Preheat oven to 375* F. In a medium bowl, combine the strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, grapefruit juice, and grapefruit zest. Mix until the cornstarch is dissolved.

Roll out 2 pie crusts to 9 inches each. Place 1/2 the strawberry filling in the middle of each pie crust.

Place a few slices of grapefruit on top. Working one at a time, fold the edges of the pie crust around the center.

Brush the edges with the egg wash and sprinkle with the sanding sugar.

Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the juices are bubbly.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Master the Fruit-to-Thickener Ratio 🍓
Use 1-1.5 tablespoons of cornstarch per pound of fruit to achieve the perfect filling consistency—too little and it will be runny, too much and it becomes gluey when cooled.
Macerate Strawberries for Deeper Flavor 🍓
Toss strawberries with sugar and grapefruit juice 30 minutes before assembling to draw out natural juices and intensify the filling's tartness and sweetness balance.
Keep Dough Cold for Maximum Flakiness ❄️
Work with chilled pie crust and chill the assembled galette for at least 20 minutes before baking to ensure the butter stays separated and creates those coveted flaky layers.
Strategic Grapefruit Placement 🍊
Arrange grapefruit slices on top in the final 10 minutes of baking to prevent over-cooking and bitterness while maintaining their vibrant color and slight firmness.
Egg Wash Application for Golden Elegance ✨
Brush egg wash only on the crust edges (avoiding the fruit) and sprinkle sanding sugar immediately after for a beautiful caramelized finish that won't become soggy from fruit juices.
