A galette is a flat, round cake that originates from France and is prepared differently depending on the region. Savoury versions are common, which are sometimes more reminiscent of a crêpe. But sweet versions are also popular. Our variation today is a rhubarb galette, which is also filled with the delicious almond cream "frangipane". Refined with white chocolate, this pastry with freshly harvested rhubarb is the perfect spring treat.

01

For the base, mix the two types of flour, sugar and cold butter with your fingers to form a crumbly mixture. Add the yoghurt and knead into an even dough. Shape into a ball and place in the fridge.

02

Mix the rhubarb with the sugar and lemon juice and set aside.

03

Break the chocolate coating into pieces and carefully melt in a bain-marie.

04

For the cream, mix the butter and sugar in a bowl. Add the egg and continue to stir into a homogeneous mixture. Now add the melted chocolate coating and the almonds and mix well.

05

Take the dough out of the fridge, dust with a little flour and roll out to a thickness of 5 mm. Line the tin with baking paper and then with the rolled-out dough.

06

Spread the frangipane cream on the galette base and arrange the rhubarb on top. Fold the overhanging pastry over the filling at the edges, brush with a beaten egg and sprinkle with cane sugar.

07

Bake in a preheated oven at 200 °C for approx. 30 minutes until golden brown.

08

Leave the galette to cool briefly and garnish with flaked almonds and chopped cooking chocolate.
