Equipment
- Rolling Pin
- 12 inch round cake tin
- Sharp Knife
- Small Bowl
- Pastry brush
- Flat baking tray
Ingredients
- 1 batch sweet pastry (about 1/2 kilo total weight) store bought or made
- 400 grams Peaches and Apricots, mixed
- 50 grams granulated light brown sugar
- 10 grams cornflour
- 10 grams milk
Bourbon Brown Sugar Syrup/Glaze
- 100 grams light brown sugar

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 170°c (340°f) or 160°c (320°f) if fan assisted.
- Remove the stones from each fruit and slice all the apricots and peaches evenly.
- Take any end bits or mushy bits and add them to a small bowl along with the cornflour and 30 grams of brown sugar. Mix together to coat.
- Lightly flour a work surface and roll out the sweet pastry. Using the 12 inch cake tin as a guide, cut the pastry.
- Transfer the pastry to a lined flat baking tray and spoon the mushy bits on to the middle of the pastry.
- Fan out the peach and apricot slices either in lines or in a circular pattern, leaving a 5 cm edge.
- Take the edges of the pastry and press them inwards and on top of the edges of the sliced fruits.
- Brush the pastry lightly with milk and sprinkle the rest of the brown sugar over the pastry and fruits.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes until all the pastry has turned an even golden brown.
Bourbon Brown Sugar Syrup
- While the galette is baking, add the brown sugar, honey and water to a small saucepan.
- Boil for 5-10 minutes until the syrup begins to thicken.
- Add in the bourbon and whisk well. Allow to boil for another minute and take off the heat.
- Once the galette is baked, brush the syrup over the fruits and drizzle a bit more to serve.
