What Is an Apple Galette?
An apple galette is a French free-form pie comprised of pastry crust and an apple filling. Unlike a traditional apple pie, a galette only uses one crust that is folded over the edges of the filling. A galette is also baked on a sheet pan instead of in a pie dish, giving the dessert a rustic appearance. The crust is rich and buttery, and the apples are sweet with brown sugar and cinnamon flavors.
How To Make an Apple Galette
This apple galette comes together in one hour with a few simple steps. Roll up your sleeves and let’s get baking!
- Make the pastry crust: Combine the flour and salt, then cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter, fork, or grater. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, water, and vinegar. Mix the wet ingredients and flour together, adding a bit more water if needed just until the dough begins to clump together.
- Chill the crust: Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes.
- Prepare the apple filling: Peel and cut the apples into thin slices. Place them into a bowl and toss them with the brown sugar, corn starch, and cinnamon until well coated.
