### Step-by-Step Instructions to Make Plum Galette Recipe With A Flaky Whole Wheat Pie Crust:

1. we will first have to get the pie dough ready and refrigerate it for a couple of hours.

4. Add the butter into the flour mixture.
5. Work the butter into the flour with your fingers until the mixture resembles a coarse meal.
6. When you hold the flour together, it should hold tight and when you let it loose, it will fall apart.
7. Sprinkle ice water onto the flour and butter mixture.
8. Using your hands push the dough from the sides to the middle of the bowl to form a ball that holds together.
9. Make sure to add little water at a time, as the heat from your hands will melt the butter and help form the dough as well.
10. You can transfer the pie dough on to a work surface and knead the dough until all the flour has come together to form a smooth dough.

20. Once you have arranged the plums, fold the outer edge of the dough and cover part of the plums that are towards the edge.
21. You can decorate the edges by pleating them, using the fold technique.
22. Place the Plum Galette into the preheated oven, loosely cover with an aluminum foil and bake for about 35 to 40 minutes.
