Plum Galette
Choose tart plums for a less-sweet galette, or very ripe plums for a sugary result. The jam is a tasty glaze for the galette; serve leftovers spread on toast for breakfast.

This is a fine basic recipe. I use 2 TB bourbon and 1 TB ice water in the crust for greater tenderness. I've also made this with 4 cups of sliced fresh peaches and 1 TB of melted low-sugar apricot jam on top. I find 1 TB of jam to be plenty, and the extra sugar to be unnecessary. Crust is very nice, it's easy to make, and with a bit of yogurt or ice cream, pretty delicious.
