This savory galette layers earthy roasted beets and sweet potatoes with creamy, tangy goat cheese for a dish that feels hearty yet elegant. The vegetables bake into tender perfection while the goat cheese melts into the flaky crust, creating a beautiful balance of flavors. Herbs like thyme or rosemary add a fragrant touch, making this galette a showstopper at any fall table. It’s a versatile recipe that works equally well as an appetizer, light main, or side dish.

Ingredients (for 1 galette, 6–8 servings):

• 1 store-bought pie crust
• 1 medium sweet potato, thinly sliced
• 2 medium beets, thinly sliced
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp fresh thyme (or rosemary)
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
• 4 oz goat cheese, crumbled
• 1 egg (for egg wash)

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss sliced sweet potatoes and beets with olive oil, thyme, salt, and pepper. Roast for 15 min. until slightly tender.
2. Roll out the pie crust on parchment paper. Arrange roasted vegetables over the crust, leaving a 2-inch border. Sprinkle goat cheese over the top.
3. Fold the crust edges over the filling, pleating as needed. Brush crust with egg wash.
4. Bake 30–35 min. until the crust is golden and the vegetables are tender.
5. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving warm.
