Ingredients
Scale
For the Crust
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 4–6 tablespoons ice water
For the Filling
- 3–4 medium apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), peeled and sliced
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- ½ cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
Instructions
Prepare the Crust
- Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and salt. Add the cubed butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add Ice Water: Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
- Chill the Dough: Form the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Prepare the Filling
- Mix the Apples: In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg (if using), and lemon juice. Toss until the apples are well coated.
Assemble the Galette
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Roll Out the Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a 12-inch circle, about ¼-inch thick.
- Transfer to Baking Sheet: Carefully transfer the dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Add Filling: Arrange the apple mixture in the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border around the edges.
- Fold the Edges: Gently fold the edges of the dough over the apples, pleating as you go to create a rustic look.
Bake the Galette
- Drizzle with Caramel: Drizzle half of the caramel sauce over the apple filling.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the apples are tender and the crust is golden brown.
- Cool Slightly: Remove from the oven and let cool for 10-15 minutes.
Serve
- Drizzle with Remaining Caramel: Drizzle the remaining caramel sauce over the top of the galette just before serving.
- Enjoy: Slice and serve warm or at room temperature, optionally with ice cream.
