Our new mini paleo FIG GALETTES are both sweet and savory. A combination so many of us crave! Figs are such a versatile lil’ fruit too. They shine no matter if we enjoy them in a sweet cookie or a savory baked dish.
Fresh figs don’t find their way to Utah very often. So when they showed up at our local Costco we grabbed them. Not sure which type they were, but most any kind of fig would do the trick in these paleo figgy galettes, so look for your favorite!
By nature galettes are rustic, so they are perfect for those of us that want to enjoy a pie crust without actually making a pie. The edges of a galette don’t have to be pretty, perfect or even. Winner, winner! If you’re at all intimidated by finishing a pie crust edge, galettes are perfect for you!
We continue to come up with unique and new ways to use our pie crust recipe and the PIE CRUST MIX. We want you all to have so many options that you will have a mix (or two) on hand all year round and not just for the holidays.
While we used a dairy free cream cheese as the base of this delightful galette, you can certainly skip that or use a spread that you pair with figs. Maybe that’s a nut butter, a spicy marmalade or even a schmear of mayo? It’s pretty customizable so experiment and have fun!
