Apple Galette

Description

A simple version of an apple pie that is not only delicious but also beautiful. The filling is the star here: there is much more of it than the dough. Making a galette is a bit more challenging than preparing a traditional apple crisp; the dough needs to be kneaded and rested, the apples must be marinated in brandy and maple syrup, and then carefully wrapped in thin dough. Overall, the recipe is straightforward—anyone can manage it. You can also make a galette, for example, with pears.
