INGREDIENTS
STEPS

Take the first pastry disc, place it on a sheet of baking parchment, dampen the edges of the galette with water using a brush.

Take a piping bag with a No. 10 plain nozzle and fill it with the almond cream. Make a spiral, starting in the middle and working outwards, leaving a 3 cm gap around the edge. Place the almond paste disc on top.

Take the second pastry disc and place it on the galette. Using your fingers, carefully seal the edges.

Whisk up an egg and use a brush to paint it over the galette.

Leave to rest in the refrigerator for 1 hour, and then brush on another coating of egg.

Using the tip of a knife, score lines in the galette from the centre to the edge, then pierce the galette 5 or 6 times with the knife.

Leave the galette to rest for 1 hour before baking.

Bake: 40 mins at 165 °C in a fan oven
