A good galette starts with great dough, and this buttery, flaky base is exactly the kind of foundation that makes a rustic tart shine. The combination of chilled butter worked into flour creates those irresistible layers, while a splash of apple cider vinegar keeps the gluten tender so the finished crust stays crisp without turning tough. Every ingredient here is straightforward and nut-free by nature — no specialty swaps needed, just pantry staples you likely already have on hand. That matters more than it might seem, since tree nuts like hazelnuts can sneak into pre-made pastry doughs and even some baking mixes through shared production lines. Making it yourself means you control exactly what goes in. Once the dough is chilled and rolled out, it's ready to cradle whatever sweet or savory filling you're craving — stone fruit, roasted vegetables, cheese, you name it. This is the kind of recipe you'll come back to every time you want something impressive without a lot of fuss.
