Cinnamon Apple Galette with Pecan Crumble Topping and Bourbon Whipped Cream
Ingredients:
- 2 large apples, peeled and sliced
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 pie crust (homemade or store-bought)
- Pecan Crumble Topping (see below)
- Bourbon Whipped Cream (see below)
Pecan Crumble Topping:
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
Bourbon Whipped Cream:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp bourbon whiskey
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Toss until the apples are evenly coated.
- Roll out the pie crust on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of about 1/8 inch. Transfer the dough to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
- Arrange the apple slices in a concentric circle pattern, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
- Fold the edges of the crust up over the apples, pressing gently to seal.
- Sprinkle the Pecan Crumble Topping evenly over the apples.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Allow the galette to cool slightly before serving with a dollop of Bourbon Whipped Cream.
Notes:
- You can adjust the amount of bourbon in the whipped cream to your liking, but keep in mind that it will mellow out during storage.
- This recipe makes one 9-inch galette, which serves 8-10 people. You can easily double or triple the ingredients for a larger crowd.
