Rustic Peach Galette with Almonds

Preparation

• 1
  Preheat the oven to 180 °C top/bottom heat. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• 2
  Separate the egg. Place the egg yolk together with the spelt flour, diced cold butter, cane sugar, vanilla extract, finely grated lemon zest, and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Work into crumbles with your fingers. Add 25 ml cold water and quickly knead into a smooth dough. Form the dough into a ball, wrap in cling film, and let rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  Meanwhile, wash the peaches, halve them, remove the pits, and cut into thicker wedges.
• 4
  Divide the dough into two halves and roll out each half into a circle (approx. 26 cm diameter) on a floured work surface. Carefully place the dough circles onto the prepared baking sheet.
• 5
  Arrange the peach wedges in a circle on the dough, leaving a border of about 4 cm free. Fold the dough edges over the filling. Lightly whisk the egg white, brush the dough edges with it, and sprinkle with almond flakes.
• 6
  Bake the galettes in the preheated oven for approx. 30 minutes until golden brown.
• 7
  Stir the honey smooth with a splash of water. Brush the still warm galettes with the honey mixture over the fruit after baking to give them a nice shine.
