Yield: Serves 6
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Ingredients:
Caramel Sauce
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup heavy cream (warm)
- Pinch of salt
Galette
- 1 homemade or store-bought pie dough
- 3-4 medium-sized apples (granny smith or honeycrisp), cored and thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Directions
Caramel Sauce
- For the caramel sauce, in a heavy-bottomed sauce pan over medium-high heat, combine the sugar and water. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
- Once the sugar has dissolved, stop stirring and let it cook. Swirl the pan occasionally to ensure even caramelization. Continue cooking until the sugar turns a deep amber colour. Carefully add the butter and stir until its completely melted.
- Slowly pour in the heavy cream while stirring constantly. Be cautious, as the mixture will bubble up.
- Stir in a pinch of salt and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
Apple Caramel Galette
- Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease a pie plate.
- Roll out the store-bought or homemade pie dough on a lightly floured surface to create a circle approximately 10 inches in diameter.
- Arrange the sliced apples in the centre of the dough, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges.
- Sprinkle the brown sugar and ground cinnamon evenly over the apples.
- Fold the edges of the dough up and over the apples.
- Transfer the galette to the prepared baking sheet or pie plate.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.
- Once the galette is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly.
- Before serving, drizzle the prepared caramel sauce over the galette.
- Serve the galette warm with a couple of scoops of vanilla ice cream on top. Enjoy!
