Black plum galette
This rustic free form tart features a buttery; flaky pie crust folded around juicy black plums. As the plums bake, they create a jammy center with lightly caramelized edges while keeping the slices intact. The edges of the tart are topped with coconut flakes and pecans not only for a contrast in flavor but texture. Simple yet elegant, this galette highlights the natural sweetness of the corn milk used in the dough and tartness of ripe plums with a finish of thyme maple syrup.
