I too, do not wish to go to the store so It’ll be a pecan, ginger cookie (those luscious little wonders from Whole Foods, drool), and Peach Galette for me…let you know how it turns out!

I had 4 extra nectarines and thought I’d throw this together. What a winner! Husband loved it — and he’s a bit dessert-ambivalent. Somehow I think I needed to cook it longer tho – I added 5 minutes and it wasn’t as brown as I would have expected. Also, I didn’t have parchment paper and it stuck to the aluminum foil that I used instead. All in al,l though, it was 5 stars.

Do you think this would work as a tart in a tart pan, instead of a free-form galette? Would you use a pâte brisée or a pâte sucrée? I don’t want things to get too sweet, so I wasn’t sure which type of dough would be best. Thoughts?

I just made this dish- thank you. It was wonderful. Typically, I’m not a huge fan of fruit- I like the taste, there’s something about the texture. I loved this dish. I altered it a bit by tossing the apricots in a little almond extract and adding some blackberries from our backyard- as well as cheating- I made mine in a glass pie dish. This is something I will definitely make again and am sending to my in-laws as a peace offering. :)

I printed out the recipe before going to visit my parents, thinking that it looked like something I could try out while at their house. When I arrived, they coincidentally had a big bowl of nectarines sitting in their kitchen, so it seemed like I was meant to make it. I made one small change intentionally (I cut the fruit into slightly smaller slices) and one small change unintentionally (I forgot to fold and crimp the crust). The galette still came out perfectly and my whole family raved about it. The recipe was in high demand and shared your website with my mom and sister-in-law. Thanks for the great dessert!

Wow – made this with some gorgeous summer peaches, despite my fear of pastry dough. Amzing! Easy! Delicious! I took it to a party and got rave reviews and my husband even took a picture of it (and he’s not normally one to enthuse about food). Best thing is it can work with so many different kinds of fruit. I’m going to make it with apples for Jewish New Year’s in a couple of weeks. Ground almonds and sugar are sooo yummy on the base.

I made this last night and it was absolutely phenomenal! It was my first attempt in the pie-ish arena and it was a huge success and soooo easy. Thank you so much!
