Apple Galette🍎
This apple galette is my go-to dessert for a cozy fall or winter evening. An apple galette is a free-form tart that features sliced apples arranged in a circular pattern on top of pastry dough. The edges are folded up and over the apples, creating a beautiful imperfect shape. You can really use any type of apples but the ones I used for this recipe were Gala and Granny Smith. Serve the galette wam, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
