Peach Galette, an easy version of a French classic. This peachy dessert has just a few ingredients and really celebrates this favorite stone fruit. If you are new to cooking, this is a great beginner recipe.
Peaches!! We are being smothered by this wonderful stone fruit, if that’s even possible. Between the peaches at the farm, our two peaches from our sapling and our friends peaches, we are set for the year.
The freezers are full of our Summer time windfall which includes our apricotpocolypse. Coming up with ways to enjoy such a big harvest is fun. Galettes came to mind since they are so easy to make and use up quite a bit of fruit. This one takes a basic pie dough recipe, peaches, sugar and butter. That’s it! It bakes up in about 30 minutes at 425F. Salsa is also a great way to use up fruit and possible gift it to friends. If you are into canning, Christmas gifts are done, in August!
Enjoy this wonderful recipe and share any ideas in the comments below. I have a lot more apricots and peaches to burn through and I need your ideas!
