Notes
- To prevent soggy crust, try sprinkling bread crumbs or brushing an egg wash or apricot jam before adding filling.
- Store leftovers covered at room temperature for 2-3 days or refrigerated tightly wrapped for 5-6 days.
- Freeze fully cooled galette wrapped well; keep up to 3 months, thaw in fridge before reheating.
- Use Brown Sugar Pie Crust or Italian Pie Crust for variation; avoid puff pastry as it may not seal properly during baking.
