Recipe Card
ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 6 tablepoons cold vegetable shortening
- 6 tablespoons ice cold water
- 2 apples, peeled, cored, and sliced thin
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
Method
Step 1
To make the crust, place 1 cup water and a handful of ice cubes in a bowl and set aside.
Step 2
Whisk together the flour and salt in a large bowl. Then, incorporate the vegetable shortening with a fork until small crumbs form.
Step 3
Add 5 tablespoons of your ice water to the mixture, and add use your hands to combine it all into a ball of dough. Slightly flatten the dough ball into a thick disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and place it in the fridge to chill for 30 min.
Step 4
Meanwhile, make the filling. In another bowl, combine peeled and thinly sliced apples, lemon juice, water, cinnamon, and brown sugar.
Step 5
Once your dough is chilled, preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Use a floured rolling pin to roll out your dough directly on a lightly floured baking sheet or pizza pan. It needs to be about 1/4 in thick.
Step 6
Arrange your apples in the center of your dough, leaving about 1 in uncovered around the diameter. Fold this extra dough over the top of the apple filling. Loosely tent a piece of tinfoil over the galette, and bake for 25-30 minutes.
Step 7
Remove from oven, let cool, and enjoy!
