Cardamom Pear Galette- this rustic pear galette recipe is simple to mix and the reliable dessert for any occasion any time of year. Made with juicy pear slices, cardamom spice, flaky pie crust, and baked until golden brown. Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream!

Every year we look forward to pear season so we can make Ginger Pear Oatmeal Cookie Crisp, Sauteed Pears with Bacon & Blue Cheese, Sparkling Pear Cider, and this Cardamom Pear Galette.

A galette is a rustic, free-form tart made with a single crust of pastry. It’s a speedy dessert to make on the weeknight or when you have an impromptu gathering.

You can fill the center of a galette with whatever fruit or protein you want (strawberries, artichokes, ground beef), but we especially love this pear galette. The pears are sweet, juicy, and a beautiful green-hued color.

We recommend serving the galette with vanilla ice cream or our favorite thing, whipped cream for the ultimate pear dessert.
