Savory Root Vegetable Galette - Vegan recipe hero image

I absolutely love making this Savory Root Vegetable Galette during the chilly months when root veggies are at their peak.

There’s something so comforting about a flaky crust filled with the earthy flavors of carrots, sweet potatoes, and parsnips.

I remember the first time I made it for a gathering; everyone was mesmerized by how beautiful it looked and how delicious it tasted.

Plus, it’s a fantastic way to sneak in some veggies while feeling like you’re indulging in a special treat!

What Makes This Recipe Special

  • Made with simple, plant-based ingredients that are easy to find
  • No animal products - completely vegan and cruelty-free
  • Perfect for beginners and experienced cooks alike
  • Delicious results that everyone will love, vegan or not

Ingredients & Substitutions

Feel free to swap in any root vegetables you have on hand! Beets, turnips, or even potatoes work wonderfully. If you want a gluten-free option, try using a gluten-free all-purpose flour. Just make sure to adjust the liquid as needed since different flours can absorb moisture differently.

Tips & Notes

  • I love to add a pinch of smoked paprika for an extra layer of flavor!
  • For an even heartier filling, consider throwing in some sautéed mushrooms or spinach.

Recipe Variations

  • Sometimes I’ll throw in a handful of chopped kale or spinach for added greens.
  • You can also experiment with different herbs like rosemary or sage for a different flavor profile.

Storage & Freezing

This galette keeps well in the fridge for up to 3 days. Just reheat it in the oven to keep that lovely crust crispy! You can also freeze slices wrapped in foil for a quick meal later on.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use store-bought pie crust?

Absolutely! If you’re short on time, a vegan store-bought crust works just fine. Just make sure it’s labeled vegan.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the cold vegan vegan butter and mix with your fingers or a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  3. 3

    Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Form it into a disk, wrap it in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  4. 4

    While the dough chills, prepare the filling. Toss the sliced sweet potato, carrot, parsnip, red onion, garlic, olive oil, thyme, salt, and pepper in a bowl until well coated.

  5. 5

    Spread the vegetables out on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized. Stir halfway through for even cooking.

  6. 6

    Once the vegetables are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Stir in the nutritional yeast.

  7. 7

    On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer it to a parchment-lined baking sheet.

  8. 8

    Spoon the roasted vegetable mixture into the center of the dough, leaving about a 2-inch border. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, pleating it as you go.

  9. 9

    Brush the crust with plant-based oat milk for a beautiful finish.

  10. 10

    Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.

  11. 11

    Serve warm and enjoy the burst of flavors!
