I love galettes, and are one of my favorites treats!
Any type of fruit would be amazing in this galette, At first I think in pears and blueberries, but when I found plums I made with them and frozen blueberries.
You can make with apples, pears,strawberries, peaches, figs, cranberries.
Use whatever's in season.
And savoury combination are delicious too!

Mix together blueberries,plums,lemon juice, sugar,flour and cinnamon set aside.
Roull out dough into a 12 inch circle on top of the baking sheet and sprinkle a thin layer of flour on top.
(This will keep the berry juices from seeping through the bottom)
