Look no further if you love pie and your favorite part is the pastry. This easy apple galette is sure to become a new family favorite. The pastry dough is almost like a shortbread. It would also go well with pears or peaches. You don’t even necessarily have to peel the apples!
Ingredients
Filling
- ¼ cup brown sugar, or more to taste
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 5 apples – peeled, cored, and sliced
- 2 tablespoons butter, cut into pieces
- 1 tablespoon coarse sugar crystals (Optional)
Pastry
- 1 1/8 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup butter, cut into pieces
- 2 tablespoons ice water, or as needed
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Make pastry: Whisk flour, white sugar, and salt together in a bowl. Press butter pieces into flour mixture with your fingers until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 2
Make a well in the center of flour mixture. Pour water and vanilla into the well; quickly work water and vanilla into flour to create a loose dough, adding more water if dough is crumbly. You should be able to squeeze it in your hand and have it stay together but be a bit crumbly. Shape dough into a flat disc, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Step 3
Make filling: Stir brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon together in a bowl. Add apples and toss to coat. Let sit for flavors to blend, about 10 minutes.
Step 4
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
Step 5
Roll dough into a large, rough circle on a baking stone or sheet. Pour apple mixture into the center of dough, leaving a 2-inch uncovered border. Dot apples with 1 tablespoon butter.
Step 6
Fold edges of dough up over apples, leaving an opening in the center. Dot dough with remaining 1 tablespoon butter and sprinkle coarse sugar over dough.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven until crust is crisp and golden and apples are tender and caramelized, 40 to 45 minutes.
