Apple Frangipane Galette Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
• Peel, core, and cut the apples into 1/2-inch (1.5-cm) slices.
• Lightly flour a work surface and roll out the dough into a circle about 14 inches (36 cm) in diameter. Transfer it to the prepared baking sheet.
• Smear the frangipane over the dough, leaving a 2-inch (5-cm) border. Arrange the apple slices in concentric circles over the frangipane, or simply scatter them in an even layer. Fold the border of the dough over the apples and brush the crust with some of the melted butter, then lightly brush or dribble the rest of the butter over the apples. Sprinkle half of the sugar over the crust, and the remaining half over the apples.
• Bake the galette until the apples are tender and the crust has browned, about 1 hour. Slide the galette off the parchment paper and onto a wire rack.
• Serve warm or at room temperature. You can drizzle the galette with warm honey or glaze it with strained apricot jam, thinned with just enough water to make it spreadable.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400. First roll out the dough on a large baking sheet greased.
• Make the frangipane: mix butter with sugar. Add the egg, flour, almond extract and almond flour. Spread this mixture over the puff pastry. Slice the apples about 1/8 inches think and arrange them in a circle. Fold over the dough that it covers at least 2 inches. Brunch the galette with agave and sprinkle cinnamon. Bake for 20min.

Steps:

• Make crust:
• Mix 1 cup flour, 1 tablespoon sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt in processor. Add butter; cut in using on/off turns until coarse crumbs form. Add 3 tablespoons water. Process until small moist clumps form, adding more water by teaspoonfuls if dry. Gather dough into ball; flatten into disk. Wrap dough in plastic. Chill until cold, about 1 hour.
• Roll out dough between 2 sheets of plastic wrap to 11-inch round. Remove top sheet of plastic. Using bottom sheet of plastic as aid, invert dough into 9-inch-diameter tart pan with removable bottom. Using plastic wrap, press dough into tart pan. Remove plastic. Fold overhanging dough in; press to form high-standing, double-thick sides. Pierce dough all over with fork. Freeze 30 minutes. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover dough and keep frozen.)
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Bake crust until golden, about 25 minutes. Cool on rack. Maintain oven temperature.
• Make filling:
• Combine 1/4 cup butter and almond paste in processor and blend until smooth. Add egg and process until well blended. Add flour and process just until blended. Spread filling evenly over bottom of crust. Toss apples with sugar in large bowl. Arrange apples in concentric circles atop filling. Brush apples with melted butter.
• Place tart on baking sheet. Bake until apples are tender and light golden, about 40 minutes. Transfer to rack; cool 15 minutes. Brush apples with honey. Serve warm or at room temperature.
