Blueberry Streusel Galette

This rustic tart showcases fresh seasonal fruit. In the summer, try mixed berries or pitted and sliced nectarines, and in the winter, make use of cored and peeled apples or pears. For a fast version, omit the streusel topping. You can also roll out the crust in advance and freeze. Bring to room temperature before filling and baking.
