1

To make the frangipane cream: In a bowl, combine the softened butter and powdered sugar and mix well. Add the egg and mix again.
2

Stir in the almond flour and almond extract, then mix again. Add the pastry cream and mix until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a piping bag and set aside.
3

Using a 9-inch (22 cm) round cutter, cut both sheets of puff pastry. Place one sheet on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
4

Pipe the frangipane cream onto the pastry in a spiral, leaving a 3/4-inch (2 cm) border. Don’t forget to add the fève (small charm or bean).
5

Brush the edges with a little water to help seal, then place the second sheet of pastry on top. Press the edges gently to seal.
6

Cut a small vent in the center of the galette. Brush the top with a beaten egg yolk mixed with a little milk. Decorate the top with a knife as desired, being careful not to cut through the pastry.
7

Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 40 minutes.
