Get the Recipe: Apple Galette
This easy Apple Galette is the perfect light fall dessert! This sweet treat has a buttery, store-bought crust, warm cinnamon, and soft baked apples!
Ingredients
- 1 pie crust, can be regular or gluten free. Should be the kind you roll out, not the kind already pressed into a pan
- 3 medium red apples, peeled and sliced into ¼ inch slices
- ¼ cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 ½ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 large egg + 1 tbsp cold water, for egg wash
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Pull your pie crust from the fridge to soften while you make the filling.
- Combine apples, brown sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl, tossing to combine and coat the apples.
- Roll your pie crust out onto the lined baking sheet. Arrange the apples in the middle of the dough, leaving space 2 inches from the edges all the way around.
- Gently fold the edges of the dough over the apples all the way around (don’t press the dough into the apples).
- Whisk together the egg and cold water and gently brush the egg wash over the edges of the galette. Sprinkle the cubed butter over the apples evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the galette is golden brown and the apples are cooked through. Allow to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, then serve!
Notes
- Deliciously served with whipped cream, caramel sauce, and/or ice cream!
- This is basically like an apple pie, only served without the top crust and much less intensive.
- I used honey crisp apples but gala, fuji, and even granny smith apples would work great. You could also use a combination of apples and pears if you wanted!
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Best served warm although I did like it cold, too!
