Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

2½ cups flour

2 teaspoons salt, divided

1 cup butter, cubed and room temperature, plus 2 tablespoons melted

½ cup ice water

For the Filling:

2 medium butternut squash, peeled and cubed (1-inch pieces)

6 tablespoons olive oil, divided

3 teaspoons cinnamon

2 teaspoons garlic powder

2 teaspoons onion powder

¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 large red onion, diced

1 teaspoon salt

½ cup Boursin garlic herb cheese (or herbed goat cheese)

4 tablespoons fresh sage leaves

4 tablespoons heavy cream

6 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated

1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

½ cup Gorgonzola Dolce (for topping)


Instructions

Make the crust: Mix flour and 1 tsp salt. Cut in butter until crumbly. Add ice water gradually and knead into dough. Chill for 30 minutes.

Roast squash: Toss squash with 4 tbsp olive oil, cinnamon, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne, and 1 tsp salt. Roast at 400°F (200°C) for 25–30 minutes until tender.

Sauté onions: In a pan, heat remaining olive oil. Sauté red onions until caramelized, about 10–12 minutes.

Prepare filling: In a bowl, mash half the roasted squash. Mix in Boursin cheese, sautéed onions, sage, cream, 4 tbsp Parmesan, and black pepper. Gently fold in remaining squash cubes.

Assemble galette: Roll dough into 2 large rounds. Place filling in the center, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold edges over the filling.

Bake: Brush crust with melted butter, sprinkle with remaining Parmesan. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 35–40 minutes until golden.

Top with Gorgonzola Dolce and fresh sage leaves. Serve warm.
