Fruit Galette Rustic

🍰 Desserts

Free-form folded galette — the pie for people who cannot crimp. Rustic, crisp-edged and comforting — the dessert that empties the table quietly. A slice of sharp cheese alongside is old-school and excellent.

Prep 36 min Cook 39 min Serves 8 Medium

Ingredients

  • Butter1/2 cup, cold
  • Salt1/2 tsp
  • All-Purpose Flour2 cups
  • Sugar2 tbsp
  • Shortcrust Pastry1 cup, chopped
  • Brown Sugar1/2 cup
  • Apple2 cups, chopped
  • Lemon Zest1 tbsp

Instructions

  1. 1

    Work quickly with chilled butter so it stays in visible flakes through the dough.

  2. 2

    Cut the cold butter through the flour, drizzle in ice water, and gather the dough without kneading.

  3. 3

    Refrigerate the dough; cold dough rolls cleaner and bakes flakier.

  4. 4

    Work the apple and shortcrust pastry into the dough, folding gently for even distribution.

  5. 5

    Bake at 190 C / 375 F for 35-45 minutes until deeply golden and bubbling; cool before slicing so the filling sets.

Chef's tip

Ovens lie — an inexpensive thermometer is the cheapest upgrade to your baking.
