5 from 1 review

Warm Apple Cinnamon Galette with a scoop of vanilla ice cream is dessert perfection. So simple to make - wrap flaky pie dough around fresh cinnamon-sugar apples, then bake, and you're done.

Servings:8 slices

Ingredients

½ Recipe Perfect Pie Crust
¼ cup dry bread crumbs
2 pounds apples (peeled, cored, sliced ¼" thick)
2 oz granulated sugar (¼ cup)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 egg ( for egg-wash)
Granulated sugar for finish

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 °F.
If using a baking stone place it in the oven to preheat at least an hour before baking.
Roll the dough to a 16" round, about ¼" thick. Transfer the dough to a parchment lined sheet pan or wooden peel (see note). Sprinkle ¼ cup dry bread crumbs over the bottom, leaving a 2" border around the edges.
Arrange 2 pounds apples (sliced) over the bread crumbs, again leaving a 2" border. Combine the 2 oz granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon then sprinkle over the apples. Fold the border of dough over the edges of the apples.
Brush the border with egg wash then sprinkle with sugar.
Bake directly on the baking stone or on the sheet pan until the apples are tender and the crust is well browned. Enjoy warm or room temperature.

Notes

If you have a baking stone you can bake the galette directly on the stone. Build the galette on the parchment and slide it onto the stone using a peel or the back of a sheet pan. Otherwise bake it on a parchment-lined sheet pan.
