Peach and Almond Galette

This week for Wednesdays With Donna Hay, Peggy chose Pear and Almond Galettes from the book, Off the Shelf, located on page 160.  This is not the season for pears so I used peaches. This is an easy recipe, using puff pastry for the galette crust.  I have made several Donna Hay recipes, making use of puff pastry and it is a pleasure to get through a recipe quickly and easily.    It made a nice dessert with the peachy flavor.  I am sure pear would work as well.  To find out......... c heck out our  page  and see what the other gals have done with this recipe.
