Description
A delicious caramel apple galette perfect for any occasion!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 pie crust (can use store-bought or homemade!)
- 3 large apples, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1/3 cup caramel sauce (that you made above!)
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- pinch of salt
- 1 egg, for egg wash
Instructions
- First, make the salted caramel sauce. In a heavy bottomed saucepan, heat the sugar on medium-low heat until it’s completely melted, swirling the pan gently every 20 seconds or so. The sugar will start to form clumps before melting slowly. Be patient and keep an eye on it to make sure it does not burn. Once melted, remove from heat immediately and stir in the butter. The mixture will violently bubble. You’re doing it right.
- Next, pour in the heavy cream and the salt. Stir until everything is combined. Pour 1/3 cup of the salted caramel into a large bowl and place the rest of it in an airtight container. Set aside.
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a large baking tray with parchment paper.
- Sprinkle a work surface with flour. Roll out your pie crust into a 12-inch circle. Place dough onto prepared baking tray. Place a 9-inch cake pan in the center of the circle and press down ever so slightly to create an indentation.
- Peel and core your apples. Cut them in half, then slice the halves into thin slices. Add the apples, spices, and salt to the bowl with the 1/3 cup of caramel. Stir everything together until evenly coated.
- Transfer the apple mixture to the center of your galette, arranging them as desired. Lift the edges of the dough over the apples, folding every 3-4 inches as you go around.
- Mix egg with 1 tablespoon water and brush over the crust.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes, until the apples are soft and the crust is golden brown. Serve with vanilla ice cream!
