Steps:
- Position racks in the middle and lower third of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Make the dough: Pulse the flour, granulated sugar and salt in a food processor until combined. Add the butter; pulse until the mixture looks like coarse meal with pea-size bits of butter. Beat the egg with 1 tablespoon ice water in a bowl, then add to the processor and pulse once or twice. (Stop before the dough gathers into a ball.) Turn out onto a sheet of plastic wrap and pat into a disk. Wrap tightly and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, prepare the filling: Toast the walnuts on a baking sheet on the middle oven rack until golden, 7 to 8 minutes; let cool. Process the nuts, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, the egg, 1 tablespoon butter, the vanilla and salt in a clean food processor to make a creamy paste.
- Line a flat baking sheet (or an upside-down rimmed one) with parchment paper. Roll the dough into a 12-inch round on a floured surface. Roll the dough up onto the rolling pin, then unroll onto the parchment. Spread the walnut filling over the dough, leaving a 1 1/2-inch border around the edges. Chill while you prepare the apples.
- Increase the oven temperature to 400 degrees F. Peel, core and halve the apples, then cut each half into 8 wedges. Arrange over the filling in a circular pattern, slightly overlapping. Fold the edges of the dough inward, pleating it. Sprinkle the apples with the remaining 1 tablespoon granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons butter.
- Bake the galette on the middle oven rack until golden, 40 to 45 minutes. (Put a baking sheet on the lower rack to catch any drips.) Cool on a rack. Whisk 1 tablespoon water and the preserves in a bowl. Strain, then brush over the apples. Dust with confectioners' sugar, if desired.

Steps:
- 1. Heat oven to 400°. In a bowl, toss apples with walnuts, ginger, 2 tbsp sugar, flour and cinnamon. Roll piecrust into a 12-inch circle, about 1/8-inch thick. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray; place piecrust on sheet. (It's OK if the piecrust hangs over the sides.) Arrange apple slices in one layer to form a circle about 3 inches from edge of piecrust; fill in circle with more slices. Scrape any remaining walnuts and ginger from bowl onto apples. Gently fold edges of piecrust over outer edge of apple filling to form a thick crust. Spray outer rim of crust with cooking spray; sprinkle crust with remaining 2 tsp sugar. Bake until crust is golden brown and apples are soft, 35 minutes. Cut into 8 slices and serve
APPLE AND WALNUT HAROSETH
This very classic Ashkenazi haroseth, which is a ceremonial part of the Passover Seder, is made from diced apple, toasted walnuts, a touch of cinnamon and a shower of sweet Passover wine. It's meant to represent the mortar used by the Israelites when they were slaves in Egypt. The sweeter the apples you use, the less honey you'll need to add at the end. But tart apples are nice here, too, as long as you balance their acidity. If you can't get Manischewitz or another sweet Passover wine, ruby port is a fine substitute. You can make this haroseth one day ahead and store it in the refrigerator; just mix it well before serving to reincorporate any liquid that might have seeped out of the mix.

Steps:
- Whisk 1 1/8 cups flour, white sugar, and salt together in a bowl. Press 1/2 cup butter pieces into flour mixture with your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Pour water and vanilla into well; quickly work water and vanilla into flour to create a loose dough, adding more water if the dough is crumbly. You should be able to squeeze it in your hand and have it stay together but be a bit crumbly. Shape dough into a flat disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Stir brown sugar, 1 tablespoon flour, and cinnamon together in a bowl. Add apples and toss to coat. Let sit for flavors to blend, about 10 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
- Roll dough out into a large, rough circle on a baking stone or baking sheet. Pour apple mixture into the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch uncovered border, and dot apples with 1 tablespoon butter.
- Fold edges of dough up over the apples, leaving an opening in the center. Dot dough with remaining 1 tablespoon butter and sprinkle coarse sugar over the dough.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is crisp and golden and apples are tender and caramelized, 40 to 45 minutes.

Steps:
- For the pastry, put the flour and butter in a bowl, and use your fingertips to rub together until they resemble breadcrumbs. Add the sugar, ground walnuts, lemon zest and a pinch of salt, and mix together. Add the egg yolk, then work into the pastry to combine, until you have a smooth dough. Wrap in cling film and chill for at least 1 hr.
- For the filling, soften the apples, sugar and ginger in a pan for about 5 mins, then stir in the flour but don't cook all the way through as it will continue to cook in the oven. Add the Calvados and sultanas, then leave to cool.
- Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Fill a large (23cm) pie dish that's about 5cm deep with the apple mixture and brush a little beaten egg around the edges. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pastry to fit the top of the pie. Put the lid on top and trim any excess; trimmings can be used to decorate the top. Use your fingers to pinch and crimp the pastry all the way around the edge and use the egg to glaze the top. Cut 3 little slits to let the steam out. Bake for 40-45 mins until pastry is crisp and golden.

APPLE WALNUT GALETTE
A great rustic apple pie for Thanksgiving, this has very little butter in the pastry and a minimum of sweetening. It's all about the apples.

Steps:
- Line 2 sheet pans with parchment. In a large bowl combine the lemon juice and apples and toss together.
- Heat a large, heavy frying pan over high heat and add the butter. Wait until it becomes light brown and carefully add the apples and 1/4 cup of the sugar. Do not add the apples until the pan and the butter are hot enough or they won't sear properly and retain their juice. But be careful when you add them so that the hot butter doesn't splatter. When the apples are brown on one side, add the vanilla, 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon and the nutmeg, flip the apples and continue to sauté until golden brown, about 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the walnuts, then scrape out onto one of the lined sheet pans and allow to cool completely.
- Remove the pastry from the freezer and place it on the other parchment-lined baking sheet. Leave to thaw while the apples cool, but don't keep it out of the freezer for too long. It's easiest to handle if it's cold and will thaw quickly. You just want it soft enough so that you can manipulate it.
- Sprinkle the almond flour over the pastry, leaving a 2- to 3-inch border all around. Place the apples on top. Fold the edges of the dough in over the fruit, pleating the edges as you work your way around the fruit to form a free-form tart that is roughly 9 inches in diameter. Place in the freezer on the baking sheet for 45 minutes to an hour. This helps the galette maintain its shape.
- Meanwhile preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Remove the galette from the freezer. Brush the exposed edge of the pastry with the egg wash. Combine the remaining tablespoon of sugar and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon and sprinkle over the fruit and the crust. Place in the oven and bake 1 hour, until the crust is nicely browned and the apples are sizzling. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for at least 15 minutes. Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.

Tips:
- Choose the right apples: Firm, tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp hold their shape well when baked.
- Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make it tough. Mix just until the ingredients come together.
- Chill the dough: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out will make it easier to work with and less likely to tear.
- Roll the dough out thinly: The thinner the dough, the crispier it will be.
- Use a sharp knife to slice the apples: This will help prevent the apples from browning.
- Don't crowd the apples on the galette: Leave some space between the apples so that they can cook evenly.
- Brush the crust with egg wash: This will help the crust to brown and become crispy.
- Bake the galette until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender: The baking time will vary depending on the type of apples you are using.
- Let the galette cool slightly before serving: This will allow the filling to set.
