I made a total mess of the fruit. Apparently, I bought Clingstone nectarines, which do not want to let go of their stone. Some did, some did not. The poor fruit didn’t know what hit it when I got my paws on it. It didn’t have a chance.
The fruit all dressed up in its ever so stylish dough. It looks quite pleased with itself, does it not?
A better view of the galette before its nice toasty sit by the fire.
After its all baked up, the galette took a nice rest on the cool counter.
And then we ate it sliver by sliver.
Wicked good choice this week by Michelle in Colorado Springs. I will be making this galette again. It will work with so many different fruits. I am anxious to give it a go with apples. The custard, which seemed to get the most disapproval on the TWD blog, was absolutely lovely. It added a nice creamy sweetness to the galette. I am glad I did not overfill the galette with fruit so that the custard had a place to snuggle in amongst the halved nectarines.

The nectarines are gorgeous nestled into the custard. Nice job!
I hate when I buy cling peaches. They should have a sign on them or something! I definitely want to try this again with the custard–I ended up making it early yesterday morning and wasn’t sure about leaving something custardy out on my counter all day. Your galette looks beautiful!
Your galette looks wonderful! I think I cut my plums up into too small a size….the fruit in yours looks so nicely nestled in the custard š
Your galette looks wonderful, even the custard ;-). What went wrong with min?
I should have shown the peaches I mangled beyond recognition – rofl! Your galette looks lovely – the custard was my favorite part too.
YUM!! This looks delish – but I esp love the poor defenseless fruit ppic!
ur pics look fantabulous! especially the one with the fruits nestled in the lovely bed of custard!
glad it turned out so great for u!
I totally agree with you about the custard. I almost didn’t add it after reading the thread about it, but then saw your comment and decided to go for it. Thanks for that comment. I really think the custard but this over the top. Your nectarines look so yummy. Thanks for the comment as well about not overfilling with the fruit, that helped me too.
I meant, put this over the top!
They look so cute all snuggled in! Your galette looks like the perfect comfy dessert, an your pics are so fab!
I used nectarines and had to cut them in thirds. No way could I get them halved with those persistent little pits. We loved it, too and I was definitely thinking apple this fall.
those nectarines look fab
YUMMM…looks sooo good!
The good thing about galettes, is it doesn’t matter if it’s not perfectly put together, cause it’s supposed to “rustic”…soo its ok if your peaches had a little problem…plus, your galette turned out really good anyway!
Great job!

that looks so tasty…i have not had a chance to make it but if i feel active tonite i will try because it looks pretty simple and fast!!
Your poor fruit – not letting go of their pits at all! The end result looks fabulous though!
lol, what a bummer, wrestling all those nectarines from their pits. It looks perfect.
Yum! It looks delicious! Great job!
I love those poor nectarines. They should have known better than to mess with a TWD baker on a galette mission. The finished product looks wonderful!
beautiful! nice to know it works w/the skins ‘n all š i enjoyed the custard too
Wow, your fruits look amazing in the custard. Absolutely gorgeous crust as well!
Lovely job! Good thinking on not putting in too much custard!
Your custard and fat peaches look awesome in that galette. Great job.
Looks gorgeous!
Ok so I totally read “cling-on” peaches and was like – Dang! Trekkies must have some clout in the fruit business… LOL. I agree. I LOVED the custard! It wouldn’t be the same deliciousness without it IMO. Great job fearless leader š

I love your photos! Those nectarines are jumping off of my screen, too bad I don’t mean literally. I really want a piece of this!
I’m definitely aiming next time for more custard and a bit less fruit (so more custard will fit!) – looks great in yours. Nice photos!
Only sliver by sliver? Mine went by big heaping slices. By me.
Looks scrumptious. Any left? š
DELICIOUS! š
I had the same problem with the nectarine pits, lol! Nasty buggers. Your galette looks absolutely perfect Laurie- I especially love the last photo. Nice job!
