Mini Galettes Are So Pretty!

How pretty are these mini fruit galettes? Use pie dough and the summer fruits you like the best to make these little individual desserts.

The other day my husband brought home a bag of Pluots -they are part plum and part apricot. So delicious – they really are the best of each type of fruit! And such a pretty color!

I rolled out pie dough and then cut circles using a cereal bowl. Then I placed the circles on a parchment lined cookie tray. I had enough for 5 circles from one pie crust recipe.

I arranged slices of the pluots in the center of each circle.

Gently fold the edges of the crust over the fruit, pleating crust as you go. Leave the fruit exposed in the center. Brush with milk and top with coarse sugar. Refrigerate for about 20 minutes before baking to help the galettes keep their shape.

Bake for about 20-25 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned.

Let the rest about 5 minutes -then dessert is ready! You could add a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream – but they so yummy right out of the oven.

A scrumptious dessert that is so pretty! Simple to make, but the galettes look so elegant. Enjoy!

I used the Mini Fruit Galettes recipe for the fruit filling and Ina Garten’s crostata recipe for the crust. Click on the links below for the recipes and directions:
