Recipe Card

Crust

ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp Local Hive Honey
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 10 tbsp cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
  • 4 tbsp ice water

Apple Filling

ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs apples, I used Gala apples but any variation works for this recipe
  • 3 tbsp Local Hive Honey
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/8 tsp ground cloves
  • generous pinch salt
  • Zest and juice of 1/2 a lemon
  • 2 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 egg, for egg wash

Preperation

Method

  • Step 1

    To a large bowl add the all purpose flour.

  • Step 2

    Use the bottom of a tablespoon to make an indent in your flour. Use the tablespoon indent to measure the honey without it sticking to the measuring spoon.

  • Step 3

    Add salt and the cold, cubed butter.

  • Step 4

    Rub the butter into the flour between your fingers to bring the dough together.

  • Step 5

    Add cold water, one tablespoon at a time. Use only as much water you need to bring the dough together.

  • Step 6

    Transfer dough to plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for an hour or until ready to use, or in the freezer for 30 minutes.

  • Step 7

    Slice all of your apples and transfer them to a large sauce pot.

  • Step 8

    Add honey (you can add more than listed if you'd like a sweeter galette), spices, salt, and lemon zest.

  • Step 9

    In a small bowl add the juice of the lemon and cornstarch to make a slurry. Set aside.

  • Step 10

    Cook the apples over medium heat to release some of their liquid.

  • Step 11

    Once their is a good amount of liquid bubbling under the apples, add the cornstarch slurry to thicken the juices. Once the juices have thickened, transfer filling to a bowl off the heat and set aside.

Assembly

  • Step 1

    Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

  • Step 2

    Flour a clean large surface. Roll out your chilled dough into a large round, about 12 inches wide.

  • Step 3

    Transfer the round crust to a parchment lined sheet tray.

  • Step 4

    Add your apple filling to the middle of the crust, leaving about 3 inches of crust plain on the edges.

  • Step 5

    Fold over the edges of the crust to seal in the filling.

  • Step 6

    Whisk up the egg for egg wash and brush onto the crust.

  • Step 7

    Bake the galette for about 30 minutes or until golden brown all over.

  • Step 8

    Serve with vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of Local Hive Honey. Enjoy!
