Pulse briefly to combine the ingredients.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Incorporate the Butter:<\/strong> Add the cold, cubed butter to the food processor. Pulse a few times just until the butter pieces are broken down slightly.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add the Liquid:<\/strong> While pulsing, drizzle in the ice water. Check the consistency by squeezing a small amount of dough in your palm; if it holds together, it is ready. If not, you may need to add slightly more water depending on the humidity.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shape and Chill:<\/strong> Transfer the dough to a work surface. Press down with your palm to knead it two to three times; this &#8220;smooshes&#8221; the butter to create flaky layers. Form the dough into a disc, wrap it tightly in plastic, and refrigerate for at least two hours to allow the gluten to relax and the butter to firm up.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Preheat and Prep:<\/strong> When ready to bake, preheat your oven to 400\u00b0F (200\u00b0C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Prepare the Apples:<\/strong> Peel and core the apples. Slice the apple flesh into 1\/8-inch slices.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Season the Filling:<\/strong> Place the apple slices in a bowl and toss them with the lemon juice to coat. Add the \u00bc cup granulated sugar and cinnamon, then toss again until the spices and sugar are evenly distributed.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Roll the Dough:<\/strong> On a flour-dusted surface, roll the chilled dough into a 12-inch circle. If desired, trim the edges to make the circle more uniform, though rustic edges are perfectly acceptable.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Assemble the Galette:<\/strong> Transfer the rolled dough onto the parchment-lined baking sheet <em>before<\/em> adding the filling. Place the apple mixture in the center of the dough, leaving a border of about 3 inches around the edges. Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over the fruit filling.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fold and Wash:<\/strong> Fold the edges of the dough over the apples, creating simple pleats to contain the filling. Brush the crust (and inside the pleats) with the beaten egg for a golden finish. Optionally, sprinkle sanding sugar over the crust for extra texture.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bake:<\/strong> Bake at 400\u00b0F for 45 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbly. Allow the galette to cool slightly before slicing and serving.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Chef&#8217;s Tips<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Apple Selection:<\/strong> While any apple will work, the best varieties are those that hold their shape during baking, such as Pink Lady, Granny Smith, or Honeycrisp. If you prefer a softer, mushier texture, choose a different variety.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Water Adjustments:<\/strong> Humidity can affect your dough. In high humidity, 4 tablespoons of water may be sufficient, but you might need more in drier conditions.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Preventing Messes:<\/strong> Always transfer your rolled dough to the baking sheet before assembling the fruit. Moving the galette after it is filled can cause it to break.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you are looking for all the comforting vibes of a traditional apple pie in a significantly easier form, the apple galette is the perfect solution.
