Mixed Berry Galette- Saskatoon-Blueberry-Strawberry Indulge in the exquisite simplicity of this delectable rustic galette – a tantalizing, topless pie adorned with a coconut oil-infused short crust. Crafting this culinary masterpiece is a breeze, offering a sumptuous blend of a rich, flaky crust and the vibrant flavors of seasonal berries. (Frozen berries work well too!)
