Ingredients

2 cups (300 g) fresh peaches, sliced
3 tbsp (45 ml) granulated sugar
1 tbsp (15 ml) honey or maple syrup
1 tsp (5 ml) lemon juice
1 tbsp (8 g) cornstarch
1 prepared pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Sugar for sprinkling (optional)

Instructions

1. **Prepare Peaches:** In a bowl, gently toss the peach slices with sugar, honey or maple syrup, lemon juice, and cornstarch until well coated.

2. **Assemble Galette:** Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the pie crust on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place the peach mixture in the center, leaving about a 2-inch border around the edges. Fold the edges of the dough over the peaches, pleating as necessary. Brush the dough with the beaten egg and sprinkle with sugar for extra crunch if desired.

3. **Bake:** Bake the galette until the crust is golden brown and the peaches are bubbly, approximately 30-35 minutes. Let it cool slightly before slicing and serving warm or at room temperature.
