  • Sprinkle the galette dough with almond meal (to soak up the liquids) leaving about 2 inches around the border.
  • Add the peach filling on top of the almond meal.
  • Fold the edges of the galette and pleate them to create a free-form tart.
  • Sprinkle the pistachios on top of the peaches.
  • Brush an egg wash onto the crust and sprinkle with pearl sugar.
