Apple Galette
- 1 1/2 to 2 pounds apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 4 tablespoons Justamere's Maple Sugar
- 1 batch Galette Dough (see recipe below)
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- In a bowl, toss apples with cinnamon, zest, juice, and 2 tablespoons of sugar.
- Mound the apples and juice in the center of the dough, leaving a border 2 to 4 inches wide.
- Fold the edges of the dough over the apples, overlapping them as you go, partially or completely covering the apples.
- Brush the top of the dough with the melted butter and sprinkle with the remaining sugar.
- Bake until the crust is golden brown and the apples tender, about 45 minutes.
Galette Dough
- 2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon Maple Sugar
- 12 tablespoon cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 1/3 to 1/2 ice water as needed
- Mix the flour, salt, and sugar in a bowl.
- Cut in the butter by hand, leaving some pea-size chunks.
- Sprinkle in the ice water by the tablespoon and toss it with the flour mixture until you can bring the dough together into a ball.
- Press into a disk and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
- To form a galette, roll dough out on a lightly floured counter into a 14 inch irregular circle, about 1/8 inch thick.
