Franc-Comtoise French Galette

King’s Cake in France has it’s very own tradition, whether you are from the North (La Galette des Rois), the South (La Couronne des Rois) and now the East with La Galette Franc-Comtoise.

I found this recipe on the beautiful blog of Emilie (@lelabodemaman) and I was so excited to try something new. Of course, you will find Emilie’s recipe right HERE!

I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did. Bon Appétit!
