🍎 Make the dough

1. Add flour and salt to a food processor and blend to combine. Add the frozen butter and pulse until it’s in very small chips. Add the ice water and run the food processor until the dough forms a ball.
2. Wrap the dough in plastic and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Roll out on a floured piece of parchment to make a 12-inch round, then rest in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.

🍎 Make the filling

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine all your filling ingredients in a large bowl and set aside.

🍎 Make the galette

1. Place the filling onto the middle of the dough, leaving a couple inches all around. Fold over the edges to enclose the fruit. If the dough has gotten warm, let the assembled galette chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
2. Brush egg wash over the dough.
3. Bake for 15 minutes at 400 degrees, then reduce the heat to 350 and bake until the underside of the crust is golden.
4. Let cool, then enjoy.
