Best 3 Apple Pumpkin Galette Recipes

APPLE-FRANGIPANE GALETTE

Steps:

• Make the crust: Pulse the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar and salt in a food processor. Add the butter and pulse until it looks like coarse meal with some pea-size bits. Add the egg and pulse a few times until the dough just starts to clump together. Turn out onto a piece of plastic wrap, gather the dough into a disk and wrap. Refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Make the frangipane: Combine the almond flour, granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, butter, egg, brandy (if using), extract, pie spice and salt in a medium bowl and mix with a rubber spatula until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• When ready to assemble the galette, preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for a few minutes. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Spread the frangipane over the dough, leaving a 1 1/2-inch border; refrigerate while preparing the apples.
• Prepare the apples: Peel the apples and slice 1/4 inch thick. Toss with the brown sugar, granulated sugar, lemon juice and pie spice in a bowl. Arrange the apples over the frangipane, slightly overlapping. Fold in the edge of the dough, pleating as you go. Brush the edge with the beaten egg and sprinkle with the demerara sugar. Bake until the crust is golden brown and the apples are browned and tender, 35 to 40 minutes. Transfer the baking sheet to a rack and let cool.
• Heat the apricot preserves and brandy in a small saucepan over medium heat, whisking, until loose. Strain into a small bowl, pressing on the solids. Brush the glaze over the apples.

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.

APPLE GALETTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Lay puff pastry onto a round pizza pan.
• Mix apples and lemon juice together in a bowl until evenly coated; add sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Toss to evenly coat apples. Spread apple mixture into the center of the puff pastry and fold edges of pastry toward the center. Brush the folded pastry edges with about 1/2 the egg.
• Refrigerate pastry-apple mixture for flavors and pastry to settle, about 10 minutes. Brush pastry with remaining 1/2 egg.
• Place pan on the top rack of preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes. Give galette a 1/4 turn and lower heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Continue baking until pastry is lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool slightly before serving, about 10 minutes.
