An apple galette is a delightful and rustic dessert that's simpler to make than a traditional apple pie, but just as delicious. With a flaky puff pastry base and a sweet, buttery apple filling, this recipe is perfect for impressing friends and family with minimal effort. Here's how you can create this tasty treat in your own kitchen.
Instructions:
- Thaw the puff pastry sheet according to the package instructions. This typically involves letting it sit at room temperature for about 20-30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Wash and peel the apples. Cut them in half, core them, and then slice them thinly, about 1/8-inch thick.
- On a lightly floured surface, gently roll out the puff pastry to smooth out any creases and make it slightly larger, aiming for about a 12-inch by 10-inch rectangle.
- Transfer the rolled-out pastry to the prepared baking sheet.
- Neatly arrange the apple slices on the puff pastry, leaving about a 1-inch border all around. You can overlap the slices slightly in a decorative pattern if you like.
- Dot the apple slices with small pieces of the butter, distributing it evenly.
- Sprinkle the sugar evenly over the buttered apple slices.
- Fold the edges of the puff pastry over the apples to create a border. This doesn’t have to be perfect; a rustic look is perfectly fine.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed, and the apples are tender.
- Once baked, remove the galette from the oven and let it cool slightly on the baking sheet.
- Serve warm or at room temperature. Optionally, you can add a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
Tips:
- Choose firm apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp for the best texture and flavor.
- Thaw the puff pastry in the refrigerator for a few hours before using to make it easier to handle.
- You can sprinkle a little cinnamon or nutmeg on the apples for added flavor.
- Brush the edges of the puff pastry with an egg wash to give it a golden finish.
- Serve the galette warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra special touch.
Making an apple galette is a great way to enjoy a homemade dessert with minimal fuss. The combination of buttery puff pastry and sweet, tender apples is truly irresistible. Give this recipe a try and share it with your loved ones – it's sure to become a favorite!
