Cranberry Apple Galette

Cranberry Apple Galette

A rustic and cozy cranberry apple galette with a golden flaky crust, sweet apples, tart cranberries, and warm cinnamon, all baked to bubbly perfection and served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

  • Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons ice water
  • 3 large apples, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup fresh cranberries
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • Vanilla ice cream, for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, mix flour and salt. Cut in cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water until the dough forms. Chill for 30 minutes.
  3. Roll out the dough into a 12-inch circle on parchment paper and place it on the baking sheet.
  4. In a separate bowl, toss sliced apples and cranberries with granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and cornstarch.
  5. Arrange the fruit mixture in the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold the dough edges over the fruit.
  6. Brush the crust with beaten egg and bake for 35–40 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.
  7. Let it cool slightly. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream if desired.

Notes

  • Use firm apples like Honeycrisp or Granny Smith for best texture.
  • Chilling the dough helps achieve a flakier crust.
  • A sprinkle of raw sugar on the crust before baking adds sparkle and crunch.
