Savory Ham and Gruyère Buckwheat Galettes
Experience the rustic charm of Brittany with these savory buckwheat galettes. Each crispy, nutty crepe cradles a delicious filling of melted Gruyère cheese, thinly sliced ham, and a perfectly set egg, creating a satisfying and quick meal that's perfect for any time of day.
Let's cook.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the buckwheat flour, water, and salt until smooth. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
Heat 1/2 tablespoon of butter in a 10-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat until melted.
Pour half of the batter into the hot skillet, swirling to coat the bottom evenly. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges are set and lightly browned.
Flip the galette. Immediately place 2 slices of ham in the center, sprinkle with 1/4 cup of Gruyère cheese, and crack one egg directly over the cheese and ham.
Fold the sides of the galette inward to create a square shape, leaving the egg yolk exposed. Cover the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the egg white is set and the yolk is still runny.
Carefully slide the finished galette onto a plate. Repeat with the remaining butter, batter, ham, cheese, and egg for the second galette.
Serve immediately and enjoy your savory French Ham and Gruyère Galettes.
