Galettes ... little free form pies. Make up a pastry as usual (I add in some almond paste because we both love it, and I usually have some in the freezer - cut it into the flour before cutting in the fat). Chill the pastry, and then roll it out into 9 or 10 inch discs, not too thin. Transfer the discs to a baking sheet (easier before filling with fruit), sprinkle some flaked almonds in the middle, mound up some fruit (drain first if very juicy), top with some flaked almonds. Then bring the edges up and pleat them around the fruit - it should look quite free form and rustic. leave the center open, but try to form the pastry in a way that will limit leaking. Sprinkle the top with a bit of sugar, maybe cinnamon, and a few more almonds. Bake at 375* for 20-25 minutes, until golden.
