The genius galette—unfussy, easy to make, and fully customizable—is presented in 50 mouthwatering recipes in a book that every baker needs in their library. 

The galette is a rustic, freeform tart. It requires a few simple ingredients, and minimal equipment, meaning that with some pantry basics, a home cook can put one together for no more than the cost of fresh (or frozen!) produce. A galette can be sweet or savory, filled with any imaginable combination of fruits or veggies, meats, cheeses, and spices. Great for a party, they can be prepared in advance, but they also come together quickly when you’re in a pinch—and galettes can be made year-round with whatever produce is available. 

Galette! celebrates this humble pastry, offering easy-to-follow and customizable recipes. With one basic crust recipe, endless galette possibilities are within reach. Incorporate summer’s bounty into a galette with peaches and granola or use pantry items in a galette with marinated artichokes and tomatoes. Brown-Buttered Apples and Honey, rolled out and baked like a slab pie, is the perfect dessert for a crowd, while individual Lemony Spinach and Rice galettes work well for a family dinner. 

No matter the filling, galettes are the ideal, foolproof bake for home cooks.

  • "[A] focused and innovative debut.... A chapter of galettes made with pantry staples... is particularly clever. Firkser is quick with a tip, like how to use leftover dough to make cookies, and her explanations of the method for assembling galettes, which always includes a quick set in the freezer, are clear and colloquial. The result is a promising first outing that is greater than the sum of its 50 recipes."

  • "Galette!: Sweet and Savory Recipes as Easy as Pie is just the book you need to start your rustic-tart adventure or to push you further along this delicious path."
