Galette Des Rois

Galette des Rois, also known as King's Cake, is a traditional French pastry made with puff pastry and almond filling.

Ingredients - Serves 8

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, granulated sugar, softened butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Mix until well combined.
Place one sheet of puff pastry on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Spread the almond filling evenly on top of the puff pastry, leaving a border around the edges.
Place the second sheet of puff pastry on top and press the edges to seal.
Using a sharp knife, make decorative cuts on the top of the galette.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Traditionally, a small figurine or bean is hidden inside the galette. The person who finds it in their slice is crowned the king or queen for the day!
