Happy Sunday all! It has been awhile since I posted on a Sunday but I couldn’t wait to share this with you!
Have you ever heard of a galette before?
At first I thought it was an Italian dessert but after talking about it with my hubby and then looking online I found out it is French.
In Italy the word for rice cakes is gallette di riso, which is why I was confused at first.
This dessert kind of reminds of an opened face sandwich, except this is an opened faced pie!
The reason I went with a whole wheat crust is my hubby has changed up his diet a little and is only eating whole wheat. He has also cut out sugar which for the first week into it I was a little depressed. How could I make desserts without adding sugar?
After I got over that and started doing some research I figured out there is a way. Add natural sugar! It’s better for you anyways.
How to make Whole Wheat Strawberry Galette:
So this whole wheat strawberry galette has just whole wheat, butter, strawberries and honey!
Also a little cold water for the crust but we will get to that in the recipe! I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
More Galette Options:
-Peach season is right after strawberry season so you don’t want to miss out on this Peach Honey Pecan Galette.
-I used puff pastry to make this Puff Pastry Chocolate Strawberry Galette. It took the work out of making the crust!
-If you want to do individual galettes how about these Mini Cherry Almond Galettes! Perfect for a dinner party!
-My favorite, only because they are so pretty is this Apple Blueberry Galette! Perfect for apple or blueberry season if you want to use fresh fruit!

I love the strawberries this time of year, and this recipe is a perfect way to use them! Definitely saving this one to make soon!
Monica
I bet you did go into shock when your husband announced he was giving up sugar….I’m impressed you’re thinking out of the box on this. I’ll have to try the honey and whole wheat crust. I make a version with Strawberries and rhubarb (they grow together in my garden) but it has wayyyy to much sugar in there. Thanks for the recipe – I’ll try it this week!
Kristen @A Mind Full MOm
You have made my day that this is sugar free and has a whole wheat crust!! making asap!

Cane sugar *is* a natural sugar. It comes from a plant. And honey is just another form of sugar; it contains the same simple sugars as cane or beet sugar (or agave nectar or…). The chemical composition varies, of course, but the basic units are the same, and there’s no real evidence that honey is healthier than unrefined cane sugar. (source: http:// goaskalice.columbia.edu/answered-questions/honey-vs-sugar-%E2%80%93-which-healthier)
This looks like a lovely recipe, but the idea that honey is somehow better for you than cane sugar just really stuck out to me. Sugar is sugar, and too much of any of it is bad for you.

Thank you for your perspective. And thanks for visiting!
