This Peach Galette is absolutely delightful. It’s sweet, delicious, fruity and one of my favourite summer desserts. I love any kind of stone fruit and you really can’t go wrong with peaches paired with pastry.
The galette has a classic, effortless look. Between the pastry and the sliced peaches is a mixture of almond meal and brown sugar. This gives the galette a bit of a base. The mixture is able to soak up some of the juices of the baked peaches and the flavour of the caramelised almond goes really well with the peaches. Another great thing about this peach galette is that you don’t need to clean and grease any baking dish. Simply build the galette on a baking tray lined with baking paper. This dessert is beautiful by itself but even better when served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

- Now, place the slices on top of the almond/sugar mixture in a "sunflower shape" (see image).
