A Galette

If you don't have galette in your country, you can very well make them yourself.

While you cook, the children in the family can have fun making wreaths.


It really is a very festive time.

Moreover, this cake really encourages conviviality, between friends and / or colleagues.

I give you in this article the recipe that we follow to make our Provençal galette.
