Whole Wheat Plum Galette

I love this recipe! The short butter crust and plums compliment each other so well! I especially like it because it uses little artificial sweetener. It's beautiful and there are different variations you can try!

You will need:

For the crust-
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
2 tbsp. brown sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
5 tbsp. softened butter
2 tbsp. cold water

For the filling-
2 black plums sliced (30-33 slices)
2(ish) tbsp. honey
1 tsp. brown sugar

To start:
1. Pre-heat oven to 350 F.
2. Mix the flour, brown sugar and salt together. Cut the butter into the dry mixture using a pastry cutter or fork. Add the water and the mixture should come together.
3. Roll the dough out on a piece of parchment or silicone baking mat. It should be about 1/2 inch thick.
4. Arrange the plum slices on the dough leaving about 1&1/2 - 2 inches of dough on the edges.
5. Drizzle the plums with honey and fold the edges of the dough over them. This part can be tricky so take it slow. The dough should overlap and fold a bit which is normal.
6. Sprinkle the top with a teaspoon of brown sugar. I also sprinkled salt over mine and it was great.
7. bake for 25 minutes or until dough has become crunchy.
8. Allow to cool and cut it like a pizza to serve.






These are great for breakfast or to have with sweet tea and lemonade! They're simple, tasty, and healthy: a triple threat! I love them and I hope you do too!

Happy Baking!
