Recipe Apple and almonds Galette

Ingredients

For dough

1 1/2 cups all purpose flour 

1 tablespoon granulated sugar

130 grams butter salted or unsalted 

1 teaspoon almond extract

pinch of salt

5 to 8 tablespoons ice water

For the filling

4 medium apples (granny smith or fuji) peleed,cored  and sliced

1/4 cup granulated sugar

2 tablespoon al purpose flour

1 dash or two ground cinnamon

1 egg beaten for brushing dough

Sliced almonds (about 20 grams)

Method

In a medium bowl, combine the flour, sugar salt and cubed butter and toss lightly with yours fingers until the butter  cubes have been coated in flour.  Using both hands pinch the butter with your thumb until you have crumbs.

Some of the butter pieces will be smaller and is okay.

Add three to four tablespoons of Ice water to the butter/flour mixture  and incrporate the water into the flour. You want to add enough ice water to bind the dough  but not too much. Add more water one tablespoon at a time, incorporating the water and pressing the douh into a ball  to see how well it binds.

The important is to incorporate enough water to eliminate most

of the dry spots into dough, be careful not add too much so the dough becomes too wet and sticky.

Press the dough into a ball while  it's in the bowl and as soon as itcomes together without crumbling  it's done.

Take a piece of  plastic wrap and press it into nthe bowl  and lift it. Wrap the dough completely in the plastic and refrigerate for at least two hours or overnight.

Prepare the  filling

When you are ready to bake , preheat the oven to 180°c (375°F) .

Toss the apples slices in a large bowl with the sugar, flour and cinnamon. Let by 15 minutes.

Assemble the galette

 Take the chilled dough from the refrigerator and roll out on a floured surface to roughly  a 13  inch round ( about 30 cm)

Transfer to a baking sheet lined  with parchment paper. Leave a border since you'll be foldingthis over the apples. Arrange the apples slices over the dough and fold  the outer edge of the dough onto the apples. Brush the dough  with the  egg wash  and sprinkle with sliced almonds over the galette.

Baker for 30 to 35  minutes or until the  the crust is golden and flaky.

Serve alone or with whipped cream or vanilla Ice cream
