I discovered the ease of Blueberry Galette recently, and my non-baking self fell in love. When I was overloaded with sweet cherries, I had to find a galette recipe to use them. This is an adaptation of a recipe found at an online wine site. That recipe used a homemade crust, but I think that the part of the appeal of the galette for me, aside from satisfying my sweet tooth, is the ease of using the refrigerated ones.

SERVES 6 -8 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup unsalted almonds, toasted and cooled
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, freshly grated
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 lbs sweet cherries, pitted (I used a mix of Bing and Ranier.)
1 refrigerated pie crust
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon heavy cream
2 tablespoons sugar

Directions

1
Preheat oven to 375.
2
On a piece of lightly floured parchment, roll out dough.
3
Transfer dough and parchment to a baking sheet.
4
Process 1/4 sugar, almonds, nutmeg, and salt in food processor until almonds are ground.
5
Gently toss with the cherries.
6
Spoon cherries over dough, leaving a 2" border.
7
Dot with butter.
8
Fold in edges, pressing gently.
9
Whisk yolk and cream together; brush over edges of tart.
10
Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons sugar.
11
Bake until golden, 40-45 minutes. (Original recipe stated 45-50 minutes, but I found that my oven was done sooner.).
