Ingredients

  • 1 pie crust either store bought or homemade
  • 4 medium apples
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 3 Tablespoons flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon apple pie spice *see notes for substitution

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  2. Peel, core and slice the apples. You can also chop them into pieces instead of slices. You need about 4 cups of apples.
  3. Put the apple slices in a bowl. Add the sugar, flour, apple pie spice and toss to coat.
  4. Roll out the pie crust into a circle about 12 inches around and 1/8 inch thick. A galette is supposed to be rustic, so you don't need to make a perfect circle.
  5. Pile the apples in the center of the crust, leaving about 1 inch around with no fruit.
  6. Fold the edges of the crust up over the apples to cover them, crimping them as needed.
  7. Bake at 375 F for 45-50 minutes. The galette will be golden brown when it is done.
  8. Serve with ice cream, caramel sauce or whipped cream.

Notes

  • If you don't have apple pie spice you can substitute 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg and 1/4 teaspoon allspice.
