Cooking instruction summary:
To prepare pastry dough: Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. When it starts bubbling, cook, stirring and watching carefully so it doesnt burn, until golden brown, 2 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a metal bowl and refrigerate until solid again, 25 to 30 minutes.Combine whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper in a food processor. Pulse once or twice to mix. Cut the butter and cream cheese into pieces; add and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add canola oil and pulse until it looks like wet sand. Add milk and pulse until small clumps form.Transfer the dough to a sheet of parchment paper and press into a ball, then press the ball into a disk about 8 inches wide. Wrap in the parchment and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 1 day before rolling out.To prepare filling: Preheat oven to 400F. Coat a large baking sheet with oil or cooking spray.Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add onions and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until just starting to lightly brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden brown, 20 to 30 minutes.Meanwhile, scrub squash (but dont peel it). Cut in half and remove the stem and seeds. Cut into fairly thin wedges, about 1/2 inch wide at the rind. Toss the squash with 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl, rubbing lightly with your hands until all the slices are well coated. Spread in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake, turning the slices over about halfway through, until- tender and browned, 30 to 35 minutes.When the onions are done, push them to the edges of the pan; add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the center, then add garlic and cook, stirring, about 1 minute. Add kale and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring, until the kale is wilted, 3 to 5 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons water, cover and cook, stirring once or twice and adding water by the tablespoon if the pan is dry, until the kale is just tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 cup cheese.When the squash is done, reserve 6 of the prettiest slices. Cut the remaining slices into 1-inch pieces. Add the squash pieces to the kale mixture and combine.To roll out pastry: Dust a sheet of parchment paper, and the dough, with flour. Roll the dough out into a 15-inch circle. Go slowly and if it cracks just press the pieces together. Dust with flour as needed and keep the circle as even as you can, but dont worry about rough edges.To assemble & bake: Spread the -onion-kale-squash mixture over the pastry, leaving a 2-inch border. Arrange the reserved squash slices decoratively on top and gently press into the filling. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup cheese and pine nuts on top.Use the parchment to lift the edges of the pastry and fold loosely over the filling in 2- or 3-inch sections. It may crack as you fold it, but thats fine. Transfer the galette, parchment and all, onto a baking sheet. Trim off overhanging parchment.Bake the galette until the pastry is golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes.Let cool at least 15 minutes on the baking sheet. Lift parchment and galette onto a platter; slide the parchment out. Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.
