Apple-Pear Galette with Hazelnut Crumb Topping
This rustic fruit tart is fragrant with cinnamon, sugar and toasted hazelnuts.
Ingredients:
Farm & Larder galette dough, chilled
2 Gala apples
1 red d’Anjou pear
2 tablespoons sugar
½ teaspoon cinnamon
Hazelnut crumb topping (see below)
Topping:
1 cup toasted hazelnuts, thoroughly cooled
â…” cup sugar
¾ cup all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon salt
â…› teaspoon cinnamon
½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into ¼-inch pieces
Method:
1. To prepare the topping: Place the toasted hazelnuts and sugar in a food processor and pulse until the nuts are well chopped. Add the flour, salt, and cinnamon and pulse again to mix. Remove the lid and scatter the butter over the dry ingredients. Pulse until the mixture resembles medium-fine crumbs. Refrigerate until ready to use.
2. Preheat the oven to 400°. Peel, halve and core the apples and slice into ¼-inch thick pieces. In a bowl, toss the fruit slices with the sugar and cinnamon.
3. On a lightly floured work surface, roll the pastry into a 12-by-14-inch rectangle and transfer to a large rimmed baking sheet. Decoratively arrange the fruit slices over the pastry to within an inch of the edge. Top the fruit with the hazelnut crumb topping and spread out in an even layer (you may have leftover topping). Fold the pastry edge up and over the fruit to create a 1-inch border.
4. Bake the galette for about 1 hour, until the pastry is nicely browned and crisp and the fruit is tender. Transfer the pan to a rack and let the galette cool. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Warm Beet Salad with Winter Greens
Topped with fresh Chevre and our crunchy hazelnuts, this flavorful salad is a true winter pick-me-up.
Ingredients:
Roasted golden beets, sliced and still warm from the oven (see recipe)
1 head escarole, washed, dried and coarsely chopped
1 head frisée, washed, dried and coarsely chopped
Farm & Larder hazelnut-thyme vinaigrette
½ cup crumbled fresh Chevre
½ cup Farm & Larder toasted hazelnut topping
Fresh-cracked pepper
Method:
1. In a small bowl, add frisée and escarole and drizzle with about ½ cup Farm & Larder hazelnut-thyme vinaigrette, and toss to combine. Allow to stand at room temperature for about 1-2 minutes, allowing greens to soak up some of the vinaigrette.
