Galette des Rois with custard: a sweet dessert!

published on 23 April, 2017 at 12:36
Galette des Rois is a French pastry that celebrates the holiday of the Epiphany, to celebrate the arrival of the Three Kings. It’s a simple cake, beautiful and filled with an almond cream. We chose to fill it with custard and black cherries. Here is what you need to make this dessert: 2 sheets of puff pastry, 10 black cherries in syrup, custard. For the custard: 400ml milk, 100ml whipping cream, 150g sugar, 35g flour, 5 egg yolks and lemon peel. Beat the yolks with the sugar, add the flour. Warm the milk and the whipping cream and let it infuse with the lemon peel. Remove the lemon peel and add the egg mixture when the milk starts boiling. Stir vigorously until the cream is formed. Let it cool. Once cooled spread the cream on a sheet of puff pastry, add the cherries and cover with the other sheet of puff pastry. Brush with egg wash (yolk) and decorate as you prefer.
