Rustic Apple Galette Recipes

FAVORITE APPLE GALETTE

Steps:

• Whisk 1 1/8 cups flour, white sugar, and salt together in a bowl. Press 1/2 cup butter pieces into flour mixture with your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Pour water and vanilla into well; quickly work water and vanilla into flour to create a loose dough, adding more water if the 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 wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Stir brown sugar, 1 tablespoon flour, and cinnamon together in a bowl. Add apples and toss to coat. Let sit for flavors to blend, about 10 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Roll dough out into a large, rough circle on a baking stone or baking sheet. Pour apple mixture into the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch uncovered border, and dot apples with 1 tablespoon butter.
• Fold edges of dough up over the apples, leaving an opening in the center. Dot dough with remaining 1 tablespoon butter and sprinkle coarse sugar over the dough.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is crisp and golden and apples are tender and caramelized, 40 to 45 minutes.

RUSTIC APPLE GALETTE

Steps:

• For the crust: Pulse the flour and salt together in a food processor, just to combine. Then cut the cold butter into cubes. Add to the flour and pulse in the processor until the bits are smaller than peas. Turn on the processor, and slowly pour the water into it. As it mixes, the dough will start to stick together. Done.
• If you do not have a food processor, cut the butter in with a pastry blender.
• Form your dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and stick it in the fridge. Let it chill while you prepare the filling.
• For the filling: Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• In a small bowl, combine sugars, salt, flour & cinnamon.
• Set aside.
• Put the apple slices in a bowl, add the lemon juice and give it a stir.
• Add the dry mixture and stir to coat.
• Add in the lemon zest, and another quick stir.
• Set aside.
• Roll out your pie crust.
• Lay rolled pie crust dough onto a bar pan or cookie sheet with an edge, lined with parchment paper.
• Pile your apples in the center.
• Simply begin folding the edges of the dough over the apples, gently pressing them into place.
• Dot the apples with the butter pieces.
• Bake the galette for 35-45 minutes, or until golden and bubbly.
• Allow it to rest and cool for 10 minutes or more before serving.
• The inside will ooze when you cut it, that's normal.
• Serve with ice cream or whipped cream.
• Enjoy!

RUSTIC FRUIT GALETTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Combine apples, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and vanilla extract together in a bowl. Place pie crust on the prepared baking sheet. Spoon apple mixture into the center of crust, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold crust over the edges of the apple mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until apples are tender and crust is golden, about 30 minutes.

APPLE GALETTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Remove chilled dough from refrigerator, unwrap, and place on a lightly floured work surface. Let stand about 10 minutes (to soften slightly). Bang on dough with a rolling pin (to begin flattening and soften a bit more).
• Dust top and pin with flour, position pin on center of disk, and begin rolling dough away from you. Give disk a quarter-turn and roll again. Continue turning and rolling in this manner until you have a 13-inch round with an even 1/8-inch thickness. Transfer to a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Refrigerate while making filling.
• In a large bowl, combine apples, granulated sugar, flour, lemon juice, salt, and cinnamon. Spread filling evenly over dough, leaving a 1 1/2-inch border. Fold edges of dough up and over apples, leaving most of fruit exposed and overlapping dough as needed. Brush dough with beaten egg; sprinkle with sanding sugar. Refrigerate 15 minutes.
• Bake until crust is golden, apples are tender, and juices are bubbling in center, 1 hour to 1 hour and 5 minutes. Using a pastry brush, spread some of juices from center of galette over apples. Transfer sheet to a wire rack; let cool 10 minutes. Using a large spatula, loosen galette from parchment and move away from any released juices (so it doesn't stick to parchment as it cools). Slide galette (still on parchment) onto rack and let cool. Serve warm or room temperature.

RUSTIC PEAR AND APPLE GALETTE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees.
• Mix the flour, sugar and salt.
• Add the cold butter and cut with a pastry cutter until crumbly.
• Slowly add the ice water just until it comes together in a dough.
• Loosely gather the dough into a ball and wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate while prepping fruit.
• Thinly slice the apples and pears and toss with lemon juice, brown sugar, flour and spices.
• Take the dough out and gently pat onto a lightly greased pizza pan or baking sheet.
• Lay the fruit out in overlapping circles or rows in the middle of the pastry.
• Fold up the edges to create a rim, pinching the dough together where it meets.
• Dot with butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
• Bake for 50 minutes or until browned and crispy on the bottom.
• Serve with ice cream or topped with whip cream.
