Rustic Apricot Cherry Galette
About Rustic Apricot Cherry Galette
A wonderful harvest fruit dessert for any special occasion. When making the pastry, make sure to stop mixing when the butter is pea-sized and try not to warm the dough too much with your hands as you roll it out. Cold dough makes a flakier crust. Makes 6 — 8 servings.
