I like galettes as they’re so fuss free, with no pre baking of the pastry wanted or a tin.
I wish to bake them for a minimum of 45 minutes, after which add a couple of minutes after till its good and golden. You need to use quite a lot of fruits for this recipe if grapes will not be in season. Stone fruits like plums or nectarines work nice. orchard fruits like pear or apple work nicely too. You would additionally swap hazelnuts for floor almonds and even add a splash of amaretto or some vanilla.
