This is one of my favorite desserts, I just love galettes! They are so simple to make because they do not need to look perfect, and they are delicious with any kind of filling. Today’s version makes the most of summer peaches, since are in season. You can make a large galette, or small individual ones. Do not hesitate to include them in your regular dessert options!
