TWD - Fall Market Galette
This month's last Tuesday with Dorie recipe is Fall Market Galette - except that in my part of the world, it is actually spring, so mine is technically a spring market galette.
To make this galette, Dorie's galette dough (made flexible for easy folding) is filled with grapes, figs and plums. However, I can't get figs and plums at this time of year, so I substituted peaches (US imports) and pears in my galette.
The dough bakes up all flaky and crisp, and the juicy fruit and walnuts are the stars of the galette:
This galette was absolutely delicious, and matched the devine smell as it baked. I served my galette with a little vanilla icecream.
My galette is reposing on a tea towel from the Margaret River region o Western Australia, where I recently took a short vacation. You can just see Cape Leeuwin peeking out from under the galette - this is the most south-western point in Australia, and has a lighthouse that was manned until the early 1990s. It is also the point where the Southern Ocean and the Indian Ocean meet. It is windy and cool up there, but worth a visit.
To see what everyone else made this week and what they thought of it, visit the LYL section of the TWD website.
This is a wonderful dessert whatever the season!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoyed your little vacation. It sounds like a wonderful place. Glad you enjoyed this galette.
ReplyDeletei always feel a bit bad that you are doing our “seasonal” bakes in the opposite season...yet you always make it work! sounds like a great combo.
ReplyDeletesounds delicious but not quite right for our season - well done on finding some appropriate fruit
