Ingredients:

• 1¼ cups all-purpose flour
• ½ tsp salt
• ½ cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
• 3-4 tbsp ice water
• 2 medium apples, thinly sliced
• 2 tbsp brown sugar
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• ¼ tsp nutmeg
• 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
• 2 tbsp coarse sugar
• ¼ cup salted caramel sauce

Preparing the Pie Dough

Step 1: Creating the Flaky Pastry

First, we need to get our pie dough ready. In a large bowl, whisk together the 1¼ cups of all-purpose flour and ½ teaspoon of salt. This ensures even distribution of the salt throughout the flour, which is crucial for flavor. Next, add the ½ cup of cold, cubed unsalted butter to the flour mixture. I find it easiest to use my fingertips to quickly rub the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crum extractbs with some pea-sized pieces of butter remaining. These larger butter pieces are key to creating a flaky crust, as they melt and create steam pockets during baking. Avoid overworking the dough at this stage, as warm butter will make the crust tough.

Step 2: Hydrating the Dough

Now it’s time to bring the dough together. Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently with a fork or your hands after each addition. You’ll likely need about 3 to 4 tablespoons of ice water in total. The goal is to form a dough that just comes together without being sticky. You shouldn’t see any dry flour at the bottom of the bowl. Once it starts to clump, gently gather the dough into a ball, being careful not to knead it. Flatten the ball slightly into a disc, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This resting period allows the gluten to relax, making the dough easier to roll out, and also chills the butter further for optimal flakiness.

Step 3: Preparing the Apple Filling

While the dough is chilling, let’s prepare our delightful apple filling. In a separate medium bowl, combine the 2 thinly sliced medium apples with 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon of nutmeg. The lemon juice not only prevents the apples from browning but also adds a touch of brightness to balance the sweetness. Toss everything together gently until the apple slices are evenly coated with the sugar and spices. Set this aside while you roll out the dough.

Step 4: Shaping andnon-alcoholic alelling the Galettes

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. On a lightly floured surface, take your chilled dough disc and roll it out into a roughly 12-inch circle, about ⅛ inch thick. Don’t worry about making it perfectly round; rusticnon-alcoholic ale part of the charm of a galette! Carefully transfer the rolled-out dough to the prepared baking sheet. Now, arrange the spiced apple slices in the center of the dough, leaving about a 2-inch border all around. Drizzle the ¼ cup of salted caramel sauce evenly over the apples. This is where the magic happens, creating that irresistible salted caramel apple flavornon-alcoholic ale

Step 5: Folding and Finishing the Galettes

To enclose the filling, gently fold the 2-inch border of dough up and over the edges of the apples, pleating it as you go to create a rustic edge. This will form a beautiful, free-form pie. In a small bowl, beat the egg to create an egg wash. Brush the folded dough edges generously with the beaten egg. This will give the crust a lovely golden-brown sheen and help it crisp up beautifully. Finally, sprinkle the 2 tablespoons of coarse sugar over the egg-washed crust. The coarse suganon-alcoholic aledds a delightful crunch and sparkle to the finished galettes.

Step 6: Bakingnon-alcoholic ale Golden Perfection

Place the baking sheet with the assembled galettes into the preheated oven. Bake for approximately 30-40 minutes, or until the crust is deeply golden brown and the apple filling is bubbly and tender.

Keep an eye on the galettes towards the end of the baking time; if the crust starts to brownnon-alcoholic aleo quickly, you can loosely tent them with aluminum foil.
