Recipe Box, Apple, Pear, & Walnut Galette
Galettes are one of my go to favorites
This one is perfect for September and thoughts of Fall
Yummmmmy caramelized onions …
A tasty base for freshly sliced apples and pears
You can make a fancy arrangement or just toss them on
I did a combo of slices and chopped apples
Now comes the good part, walnuts and gorgonzola!
If you’re not bleu cheese lover, sub sharp cheddar
Now fold in the edges
Brush the dough with an egg wash
so it bakes up pretty and golden
Serve as an appetizer, side dish or main dish
You can add cooked sausage, bacon, or ham
to make it even heartier if desired
Perfect for these early Fall days
It’s loaded with flavor!

I’ve never made a galette before — this one might be my first. It looks fabulous and I could see appetizer, snack or maybe even dessert potential with this one.
Galettes are so easy Jeanie, you’ve got to try making one! You can toss in anything you want, a great way to clean out the fridge!
