Why You'll Love this Berry Galette Recipe

Galettes are so much easier than a pie. No offense to pies, but you have to be careful with the edges and rim - they look a little messy if they aren't perfect. And with galettes, the messier the better - just call it rustic and move on.

This galette combines cherries and blueberries for a sweet and delicious dessert.

I used frozen berries because fresh berries are only good in the summer. I'm a big proponent of frozen ones because they're picked at the height of their growing season and are cheaper than buying out-of-season berries.
