This galette was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a moister filling, like a custard or fruit compote.

I had some trouble getting the crust to brown evenly. I think I might have needed to pre-bake it for a few minutes before adding the filling.

This galette was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a different filling, like a savory cheese or vegetable filling. The crust was good, though.

I'm not a fan of cream cheese, but I loved this galette! The fruit and crust were so good that I didn't even notice the cream cheese. I'll definitely be making this again, but I might try it with a different filling next time.

This is my new favorite summer dessert! It's so light and refreshing, and the cream cheese filling is the perfect touch. I love that it's not too sweet, and the fruit really shines through. I've made it several times already, and it's always a hit.
