Apricot and Lime Galette
I love making this Apricot and Lime Galette when guests come over in summer. It requires a bit of advance planning because it needs a lot of chilling time. I find it really helps to manage the dough in the summer if you chill it between each step.
Start by making the pastry base and place it in the refrigerator to chill. While it chills, make the filling by mixing lime zest with granulated sugar and adding apricots, flour, nutmeg and salt. When the pastry is chilled, place the fruit in the center and fold in the edges to create a crust. Bake in the oven and serve with creamy vanilla ice cream. Yum!
