APPLE CRANBERRY GALETTE

A galette is basically a free-formed one-crust pie. It can be a dessert, main dish, or appetizer. When you think of it that way, ANYTHING can be put into a galette! This is one that I came up with when I was thinking of making fried apples for dinner.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 apples, peeled and cored (I use whatever kind I have on hand)
1/4 c butter
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1/3 c brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 c fresh cranberries
1 refrigerated pie crust (or make your own if you're ambitious)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Spray a cookie sheet with nonstick spray.
  • 2. In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat.
  • 3. In a bowl, place apple slices. Add cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and brown sugar.
  • 4. Toss and add to skillet.
  • 5. Cook for 10 minutes and then stir in cranberries. Cranberries will pop when heated through.
  • 6. Cook until liquid cooks down and apples are tender.
  • 7. Unroll pie crust onto prepared pan. Spread so it makes an uneven circle.
  • 8. Spoon prepared apples into the center of crust and fold in sides loosely and unevenly. You can sprinkle crust with granulated sugar if you'd like.
  • 9. Bake in preheated for 12-15 minutes or until crust is golden brown and flaky.

APPLE AND CRANBERRY GALETTE

This beautiful open-faced pastry glistens with scarlet cranberries nestled among golden apple slices. Filled with already-simmered fruit, the galette bakes quickly and evenly. From William-Sonoma posting for safekeeping. I think I would just use a puff pastry or pre-made pie shell to save time if I was in a hurry. Prep time does not include time to peel apples or chill time for dough.

Time 1h5m

Yield 2 galletes, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons white cornmeal
2 teaspoons sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
12 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into chunks
6 tablespoons sour cream
1/2 cup ice water
8 large granny smith apples, peeled, cored and sliced
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
3 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 1/2 cups fresh cranberries
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into thin slices
sugar, for dusting (optional)

Steps:

  • To make the pastry, in a food processor, combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar and salt. Scatter the chunks of butter over the top and pulse for a few seconds until the butter pieces are the size of small peas. In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream and ice water. Drizzle the mixture over the dough and pulse for a few seconds until the dough is smooth and clings together. Pat the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
  • In a large fry pan over medium heat, combine the sugar, water, honey, lemon juice and cinnamon and heat, stirring, until the sugar dissolves. Stir in the apple slices and simmer until opaque, 5 to 7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the apple slices to a bowl and let cool slightly.
  • Add the cranberries to the juices in the fry pan and simmer until they start to pop, about 2 minutes. Transfer the cranberries to the bowl with the apples. Increase the heat to medium-high, boil the juices until reduced slightly and spoon over the fruit.
  • Position 2 racks in the middle of the oven and preheat to 400°F
  • Divide the ball of chilled pastry dough in half. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out each half into a round about 12 inches in diameter. Fold each pastry round in half, transfer to separate baking sheets or pizza pans and unfold. Divide the fruit filling equally between the pastry rounds and spread it in an even layer, leaving a 1 1/2-inch border uncovered. Fold the border over the fruit, pleating the edges to form a broad rim. Lay thin slices of butter over the exposed fruit.
  • Bake the galettes, switching the pans between the racks and rotating them 180 degrees at the midway point, until the pastry is golden brown and the apples are tender, 35 to 40 minutes.
  • Transfer the pans to wire racks and let the galettes cool completely on the pans. Cover and store at room temperature until ready to serve. Sprinkle with sugar just before serving. Makes two 9-inch galettes; serves 10 to 12.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples. This will give your galette a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn.
  • Don't overcook the apples. They should be tender but still have a little bit of bite to them.
  • Use a good quality cranberry sauce. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your galette.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. A little bit of cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger can really enhance the flavor of the apples and cranberries.
  • Let the galette cool slightly before serving. This will help the filling to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Apple cranberry galette is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It's a great way to use up leftover apples and cranberries, and it's also a festive dish to serve during the holidays. With its flaky crust, sweet and tart filling, and beautiful presentation, apple cranberry galette is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
