Cranberry Apple Galette Recipe

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 9-inch refrigerated pie crust
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup water
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 3 large apples

  unpeeled and thinly sliced, like Golden Delicious, Granny Smith, or Honeycrisp
• 1 cup fresh cranberries
• 2 tablespoons butter

  sliced thinly
• egg wash

  (1 large egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water or milk)
• optional: coarse sugar
• optional: fresh thyme
• optional: caramel sauce

Instructions

• 1 Preheat the oven to 400℉.
• 2 Unroll the ready-made pastry and roll into a 12-inch circle or about 1/8-inch
  thick. This helps flatten the edges. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet
  and set aside.
• 3 In a large skillet (I like nonstick) over medium heat, combine the sugar, water,
  and honey, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Stir in the apple slices and
  simmer just until they begin to soften. Depending on how thin your apple slices
  are, this could take only about 2 minutes or for thicker slices, up to 5-7
  minutes. Remove the apples with a slotted spoon to a nearby bowl then boil the
  liquid over medium-high heat until reduced and thickened slightly.
• 4 Arrange apple slices into the center of the pastry, leaving a 2-inch border of
  pastry uncovered. I like to flute and stack the slices into groups, but that is
  optional and only to create a pretty design. Nestle the fresh cranberries into
  the apple slices, drizzle the reserved cinnamon sauce over the top, and dot with
  butter.
• 5 Fold the edges of the pastry over the fruit, pleating as needed, to form a rim.
  Press gently to seal the edges. Then brush crust edges generously with the egg
  wash and sprinkle with coarse sugar if desired.
• 6 Bake for 20 to 30 minutes or until the pastry edges are golden and the apples
  are tender. Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 10 minutes to set up.
  Garnish with fresh thyme if desired and a drizzle of either honey or ready made
  caramel sauce before cutting into wedges and serving.
