Peach Galette

This rustic Peach Galette is an easy, fool-proof summer dessert. Use juicy fresh peaches, store bought crust, sugar, cinnamon and serve warm with some vanilla ice cream.

Who can resist fresh fruit this time of year especially when it is peaches? I know I can’t.

Not living where they are grown, I depend on my grocery store to have the best ones and my go to place is Trader Joe’s. This year they have been fantastic.

What you will love about this recipe is that it is easy to make and since it has that rustic look, the crust can be formed any way you like. Who’s ready to get baking?

Ingredients

• store bought crust
• egg
• fresh peaches
• brown sugar
• cinnamon
• salt
• cornstarch
• coarse sugar

Step by Step Instructions

Fresh out of the oven!

Tips

• if your peach skin is tough, feel free to use a vegetable peeler to remove it
• peaches should not be rock hard or overripe
• store bought crust will make this dessert tart come together in a snap
• I also brushed a bit of egg wash between the tucks as I was folding the top
• galette is best served warm or at room temperature and eaten the day it is made
• using the cornstarch prevents the bottom crust from getting soggy

Variations

• other stone fruit you could use are nectarines or plums
• sprinkle with sliced almonds
• add some blueberries or raspberries along with the stone fruit
• drizzle with a powdered sugar glaze

We really like ours topped with vanilla ice cream – it’s ok if it melts a bit!
