FLAKY APPLE GALETTE WITH OAT STREUSEL

This free-form pastry tastes just as delicious as apple pie—but with no upper crust or fluting to worry about, it's forgiving to make. The crispy oatmeal streusel helps insulate the filling while baking, keeping the apples juicy. Serve at room temperature or warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

MINI CHERRY GALETTES

Juicy fresh cherries star in this simplified alternative to pie. Make the fruit filling at the last minute, otherwise the sugar will draw out the cherry juices, making assembly messier.

SPICED PEAR GALETTE

Galettes are the perfect fall dessert because you get all the flavour of a flaky fruit-filled pie but with a rustic home-style look. Firm Bosc pears are ideal for baking; they stay crisp when ripe and keep their shape.
