Apple Galette
Apple Galette is a free-form apple pie with a flaky pie crust that gently encircles tart apples, brown sugar, and walnuts. This galette is less sweet and more of an everyday dessert, versus something for a fancy dinner party.
Servings 6 to 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 8-inch pie crust
- 1 stick butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- 3-4 medium sized apples washed, cored and sliced thinly
Instructions
- To make the galette, you can either make your own pie crust or use a store-bought crust.
- Once the pie crust is ready, melt a stick of butter and a pinch of salt in a small saucepan. When the butter is melted, add the brown sugar and nuts, stir to combine, remove from the heat.
- Roll out the pie crust on a cookie sheet-sized piece of parchment.
- Cut the apples and layer the slices leaving a 1-1/2 inch border of pie dough on the edge. Spoon the butter and brown sugar mixture over the apples, until covered.
- Lightly wrap the pie crust border over the edge of the apples so that the majority of the apples are still visible.
- Egg wash the crust and bake at 375℉ for 20-30 minutes. When the pie crust turns a light golden brown, remove the Galette from the oven.
- Serve with ice cream, whipped cream, or by itself.
