Boursin Tomato Galette
This Boursin Tomato Galette is the kind of easy, elegant dish that makes you feel like you have your life together. It’s flaky, cheesy, savory, and a little spicy with that irresistible drizzle of hot honey at the end. Whether you’re hosting brunch, need a starter for a dinner party, or just want something fancy-ish with your afternoon wine, this galette is your move.
It uses store-bought puff pastry, so there’s no stress , just a few layers of good ingredients and a hot oven. The Boursin adds garlicky, herby creaminess that pairs perfectly with the juicy heirloom tomatoes. And if you can’t find heirlooms, don’t worry – any good tomato will shine here as long as you salt and dry it.
Before You Get Started
Here’s a quick checklist to help everything go smoothly:
- Thaw your puff pastry in the fridge ahead of time (overnight is ideal)
- Slice and salt your tomatoes to remove excess moisture
- Microwave your Boursin for about 20 seconds to make it easier to spread
- Line your sheet pan with parchment for easy cleanup
- Preheat your oven fully before baking

How To Make Boursin Tomato Galette
1
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and place your puff pastry sheet on it.
2
Score the puff pastry edges about two fingers in from the sides, creating a border. Don’t cut all the way through – you want a shallow line so the edges puff up when baked.
3
Brush the center of the pastry (inside the scored border) with olive oil. Heat your Boursin cheese in the microwave for 20 seconds and spread it evenly over the olive oil.
4
Sprinkle on red pepper chili flakes, then layer on the sliced, salted, and patted-dry tomatoes.
5
Season with pepper and sprinkle on half of the fresh basil (roughly chopped). Brush the outer border with egg white.
6
Bake for 20–25 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and puffed.
Remove from the oven, drizzle with hot honey, and finish witthe rest of the fresh basil.
Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
