Method

  • step 1

    Mix the flour, 1 egg, the milk and a pinch of salt in a jug or bowl. Set aside for 30 mins, or up to 3 hrs. Mash together the mustard, cream and cheese in another bowl. Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6, and line two baking trays with baking parchment or foil.

  • step 2

    Melt the butter in a large frying pan, then once foaming, add enough batter to just cover the pan, swirling it to cover the surface in a thin layer (pour any excess back into the batter bowl). Cook until the surface is set and the underside is browning, carefully flip and cook for another minute or 2, then take off the heat.

  • step 3

    Spoon a quarter of the cheese mixture onto the middle of the pancake, using the spoon to create space in the centre to hold an egg. Crack one into the space and lay a few pieces of ham around the edges. Fold each side of the pancake in towards the centre to make a square. Cook in the pan for another 30 secs-1 min, then transfer to a baking tray. Repeat with the rest of the pancakes, then bake for 6-7 mins until the egg whites are set. Serve with fried mushrooms or wilted spinach, if you like.

These are so easy to make. Only tips would be pay attention to making batter as it can go lumpy & the longer you leave it to stand the better & make sure well to drop egg into is deep otherwise egg spills over galette. Out of mix I made 2 with 1 egg each and 1 extra with 2 eggs.

question

can I make just two larger galettes with the same amount of mixture/ingredients please?

5 eggs?! This isnt a galette. Its an omelette

I thought that at first glance! But it's just one egg for the galette mix and the remaining eggs are used for the filling.

I made these and added some thinly sliced pan fried garlic mushrooms too. They were delicious!
