Apple Galette

Galettes are so much easier and quicker to make than a pie - and because there are only two of us,  this is dessert for two days!

I began with a pre-made Pillsbury pie crust:

 This time I used small golden delicious apples, peeled and cut into wedges.

This size is perfect for 4 desserts!

To keep the crust golden, I brushed with melted butter and sprinkled with sugar:

The aroma is amazing!

Apple Galette

3 cups apples, sliced thin

1/4 c sugar

1 T flour

1/2 t cinnamon

1/2 t vanilla

1 premade pie crust

1/2 T butter, cut into little chunks plus 1T melted

2 t sugar for dusting

Toss the first 5 ingredients in a large storage bag to coat the apples well.

Roll out premade pie crust on a parchment covered baking sheet and arrange the apples in the center, leaving a 1 1/2' -2" border of crust.  Fold the edges up, pleating over the apples.  Dot with little chunks of butter.  Brush melted butter over the pie crust and sprinkle with a little sugar.  Bake for 25 minutes at 425°.  Let sit for 15 minutes to cool and let the juices thicken. Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream!
