Ingredients
Scale
For the frangipane:
- 2 Tablespoons sugar
- 2 Tablespoons butter, softened
- 1/4 cup almond meal
- 1 Tablespoon whole wheat flour
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
- 1/2 of an egg
- A pinch of salt
For the galette:
- 1 pie crust (homemade or store-bought)
- 7 small or 3 – 4 medium peaches, peeled and sliced (about 3 cups sliced)
- 2 Tablespoons whole wheat flour
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon EACH: cinnamon and ginger
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 – 3 teaspoons bourbon or brandy (optional)
- 1/2 Tablespoon butter, cut into small bits
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix together all the frangipane ingredients, saving half the egg for brushing the crust. Set the almond mixture in the fridge to cool down while you prep the peaches. Chilling it a bit makes it easier to handle.
- Fill a medium saucepan mostly with hot water and bring to a boil. Set the peaches in the hot water bath for about 30 seconds, then set on a towel to cool. This makes the peels so easy to slip right off the peaches. Peel and slice the peaches, removing the pits as you go, then set them in a large bowl and toss with the flour, sugar, spices, vanilla and liquor (if using).
- Preheat the oven to 425 F. Roll out the pie crust to a 12 inch circle and set in the middle of a large rimmed baking sheet. Spread the frangipane over the center of the crust, leaving about 2 inches around the edges, then top with peaches, spreading them out to cover the frangipane. Leave any excess juices in the bowl so the galette doesn’t get too soggy. Dot with butter.
- Fold the outside edges of the crust up over the filling, pinching together a bit to hold it in place. Whisk the remaining egg, then brush the top of the crust with it and sprinkle with turbinado sugar (and almond slices, if you have them).
- Bake at 425 F. for 25 – 30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool at least 15 minutes before eating.
