Galettes are a wonderful shortcut alternative to homemade pie. This juicy, jammy ginger pear galette combines slices of pear and bits of crystallized ginger with a super flaky, golden brown all-butter pie crust.

This fresh strawberry cream cheese pie combines a crumbly, buttery graham cracker crust, mousse-like whipped cheesecake filling, and a jammy strawberry topping made without artificial flavor.
