INSTRUCTIONS
- Combine flour, butter, sugar, and salt in a food processor and pulse until pea-sized crumbles form. Slowly begin to pour in ice-cold water until a rough dough begins to form. Place dough on a well-floured work surface and press together until the crumbles begin to stick together and form the dough for the pie crust. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes. (If you do not want to make your own pie crust, you can use store-bough and skip this step.)
- Thinly slice apples. Add to a bowl and squeeze lemon on top. In a small bowl, whisk together sugar and cinnamon and nutmeg whisk and sprinkle on top of apples, ensuring all slices are coated.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Roll dough out onto a well-floured work surface. Using a rolling pin, roll dough out into a large square, about 12 x 12 inches. Place dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place apples on top of crust in sets of 4, alternating directions (you do not have to do this, you can simply place the apples on top of the crust in any way that you like!). Leave about 1 inch around the perimeter of the galette. This will make it so that you can fold the dough on top of the apples.
- Cut 4 tbsp of butter into cubes and place on top of the apples. Fold the dough over the apples.
- Beat the egg and brush over the dough. Sprinkle coarse sugar on top of the egg if you’d like. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until dough is golden and flaky, and apples have softened.
- Enjoy with ice cream or caramel on top—or both!
