Servings

8-10 people

Ingredients

For the crust:

• 1 1/2 sticks (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1 teaspoon salt

For the filling:

• 3-4 apples, peeled and sliced (Granny Smith or other sweet-tart variety)
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 cinnamon stick, broken into pieces
• 1/2 cup chopped macadamia nuts
• 1/4 cup white chocolate chips

Instructions

Make the crust:

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, and salt.
2. Add the beaten egg and stir until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3. Add cold butter; use a pastry blender or fingers to work it into the flour mixture until it forms a crumbly dough.
4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead a few times until it comes together.

Prepare the filling:

1. In a large skillet, cook apples over medium heat with butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon stick until caramelized, stirring occasionally.
2. Stir in chopped macadamia nuts and white chocolate chips.
3. Set aside to cool slightly.

Assemble and bake the galette:

1. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8 inch thickness.
2. Transfer dough to a baking sheet or pizza stone lined with parchment paper.
3. Arrange apple mixture in the center of the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
4. Fold the crust over the apples, pressing edges to seal.
5. Brush crust with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar.
6. Bake at 375°F for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown.
