Instructions
 

Macerate Apples

  • Peel, core and chop apples into ¼ inch slices.
    2 Lbs. Apples

    ¼ Cup Raisins, 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
  • Add granulated sugar and toss until apples are coated.
    ½ Cup Granulated Sugar
  • Set aside for one hour.

Galette

  • Generously sprinkle flour on worksurface and roll out puff pastry to a 12" square. Place rolled pastry on baking sheet lined with parchment paper (or silicone baking mat). Place in refrigerator while preparing filling.
    1 Sheet Puff Pastry, defrosted
  • Pour macerated apples and raisins into a colander placed over a bowl. Discard the juices.
  • Sprinkle cornstarch, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg over apples and raisins. Toss to coat fruits evenly.
    ⅓ Cup Brown Sugar, 2 Tablespoons Corn Starch, ½ teaspoon Salt, 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon, ½ teaspoon Nutmeg
  • Pile the apples and raisins in the center of the puff pastry, leaving about a 2-inch border all around—this edge will be folded over the filling.
  • Lightly beat an egg, then use a pastry brush to gently coat the exposed puff pastry with the egg wash.
    1 Large Egg, lightly beaten
  • Begin folding pastry over filling (leave a middle opening of at least 2 inches to allow steam to escape. Continue to apply egg wash to pastry to ensure it adheres to itself.
  • Brush egg wash on exposed pastry. Sprinkle generously with raw sugar.
    1 Tablespoon Raw Sugar
  • Return assembled galette to refrigerator (note - this allows the dough to relax while the oven heats up).
  • Heat oven to 400℉ (205℃).
  • Bake for 24 - 28 minutes. Pastry should be a dark golden color.
  • Let galette cool on pan for 20 minutes and transfer to cooling rack to cool completely.
  • Enjoy!
