Pistachio Pear Frangipane Galette

Rustic pear galette with pistachio frangipane and a golden folded crust

PISTACHIO PEAR FRANGIPANE GALETTE

makes 1 9.5in" galette | serves 6 | active time: 30 minutes | full time: 1.5 hours

this rustic dessert pairs sweet pears with creamy pistachio frangipane in a buttery, flaky crust to celebrate the flavors of fall & the season of gathering. the pears get soft and just caramelized enough, while the frangipane brings this nutty, almost creamy richness that plays so well with the delicate sweetness of the fruit. and our Pistakio Cream give it that extra something—more depth, more texture, and this warm, subtly earthy note that makes each bite feel kind of luxurious.

ingredients:

½ cup (130g) Pistakio Cream
¼ cup (55g) unsalted butter, softened
1 large egg
¼ tsp almond extract (optional for extra nutty flavor)
2 tbsp (12g) pistachio flour - toasted + pulsed pistachios
pinch of salt
1 store-bought or homemade pie crust
4-5 ripe pears

instructions:

preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
assemble your frangipane, spread evenly in the middle of your rolled out pie dough, leaving room for a 2 in border.
slice your pears thinly and arrange.
fold over the pie dough border, brush with egg wash and sprinkle demerara sugar and crushed pistachios.
bake for 35-40 mins until golden and fragrant.
let cool before serving with ice cream or fresh whip (bonus points if it has extra Pistakio Cream on top!!!)
enjoy!
