Steps:
- Thaw the frozen puff pastry on the kitchen counter for 30 minutes. Then preheat oven to 350 F / 180 C.
- In the meanwhile, make the peach filling. Clean the peaches and cut them in small thin slices about 1/4 inch thick. Place them in medium bowl and sprinkle with sugar, almond flour and ground cinnamon over them. Gently toss them with your hands and try to coat all peaches with the mixture.
- On a large sheet of parchment paper, sprinkle 1 tbsp of flour and place the dough on the floured parchment paper. If you are using rolled out puff pastry sheets style Pepperidge Farms, simply unroll and place those two sheets on each other, so the corners creates shape of the star. This way you will be able to achieve round shape. Roll gently with rolling pin over it, to connect it. If you are using two small squared shaped puff pastry dough style Tenderflake, place them on each other and roll out round shape about 1/8 inch thick.
- Start placing peach slices about 1 inch from galette edge, overlapping slightly each slice in circle, continue until you reach the centre of the galette.
- Fold the outer edges of the pastry over the peaches. Tuck extra dough inside edges if it's overlapping more than 1 inch or on the other side, try to gently pull on the dough, if the edge is not thick enough. The shape doesn't need to be perfect. Brush the pastry edges with 1 beaten egg. Optional: sprinkle lightly the edges with granulated sugar.
- Bake in preheated oven 350 F / 180 C for 35 - 40 minutes or until the crust is golden.Let the galette cool on the baking sheet. Cut into 8 slices, best cut with pizza cutter and serve with scoop of ice cream (optional).

This is a combination of at least 3 recipes. I was feeling motivate to make an apple pie, then a crostata and got lazy. I didn't feel like making a pastry crust. So I searched and searched and found that puff pastry was an option, so here ya go! Enjoy! Prep times includes thaw time for the puff pastry sheet.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Thaw 1 sheet of puff pastry, about 30-40 minutes. Once thawed, unfold. If it cracks, press the seams together with wet fingers.
- Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. *a four sided baking sheet works best in case of drips.
- Halve apples, core>with melon-baller, peel apples. Slice into thin half moons. Place into a bowl. NOTE: *It is important to slice them thin or the pastry sheet will be done before the apple bake tender.
- Combine sugar and spices. Pour over the apples and toss to coat.
- You will make 3 rows of apples, leaving almost an inch of pastry exposed, all the way around.
- Overlap the apple slices one on top the other covering the apple by 2/3 because the apples will shrink while baking. Dot apple slices with butter.
- Make egg wash (mix egg and water together) and brush over the exposed pastry crust.
- Bake for about 15 minutes. Rotate once during baking. If the crust is puffed up and golden brown and apples tender, it's done.
- Meanwhile -- In a glass bowl add the calvados to the apricot preserve. Warm in the microwave for 20-30 seconds and stir. Warm a bit longer if necessary to thin.
- While the galette still hot, brush with apricot & calvados mixture.
- Serve warm with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream.

APPLE GALETTE
A fancy yet simple version of apple pie. This version was conceived in a Montreal hotel room (with a full kitchen, nonetheless) after being inspired by all the apples at the Marche Jean-Talon. I hope you enjoy this! Why not try adding some raisins, dried cranberries, or even some almonds to the mix. Serve warm with a scoop of good quality vanilla ice cream.
