This Fruit Galette has very few ingredients, and is quick and easy to make. A Galette is a term used in French cuisine to designate various types of flat round or freeform rustic tarts with hand-folded edges. I love them because they don't have to be perfect and with few ingredients.

Prep: 10 mins
Cook: 35 mins
Yields: 6 Servings

Ingredients

1 refrigerated rolled piecrust

3 thinly sliced nectarines, peaches or fruit of your choice

3 Tablespoons turbinado sugar

2 Tablespoons unsalted butter, cut up

Directions

1Heat oven to 375° F with the rack in the lowest position.

2Place the piecrust on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Leaving a 2-inch border, top with the fruit. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of the sugar and the butter. Fold the edges of the dough toward the center, overlapping slightly and partially covering the fruit. Brush the dough with 2 teaspoons water and sprinkle with the remaining tablespoon of sugar.

3Bake until the juices are bubbling and the crust is golden (tent with foil if the crust browns too quickly), 35 to 40 minutes.
