Instructions
For the Almond Frangipane:
Add the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and almond flour into a bowl. Cream the ingredients together until well combined then mix in the egg yolk, almond extract, vanilla extract, and salt.
For the Strawberries:
Add the strawberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice into a large bowl. Toss the ingredients together until everly coated.
For the Strawberry Almond Galette:
Preheat the oven to 350℉ and Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll out the pie crust onto the baking sheet, making sure it's centered. Spread the almond frangipane into an even layer in the center of the pie crust leaving a 2 inch border around the edge. Drain the strawberries from the liquid in the bowl and add them on top of the almond layer.
Fold up the edges of the pie dough so that they form a crust. Brush the crust with egg wash and press on the sliced almonds so they adhere to the crust. Sprinkle the raw sugar onto the crust then bake it in the oven for 50-60 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the strawberry filling is bubbling.
Remove it from the oven and allow it to cool until the filling is set. Dust powdered sugar on top. Slice it into triangles and serve with whipped cream or ice cream if desired.
