Every January in France, bakeries fill their windows with golden Galette des Rois to celebrate Epiphany. Inside the crisp puff pastry hides a creamy almond filling and a small charm called a fève. Whoever finds it becomes the king or queen of the day!
This homemade version uses real frangipane (a mix of almond cream and pastry cream) for a rich, bakery-style galette that is surprisingly easy to make. At the end, I also provide a quick and simple almond filling for those who prefer a faster version.
