Apple Galette with a Whiskey Caramel Sauce

1

The Pastry

Preheat the oven to 200℃. Open the pastry and unroll on a square sheet of parchment paper. Using a large dinner plate ( up to 30cm in diameter ) cut out a circular shape.
2

Apples

Peel, core and thinly slice the apples. In a bowl, combine the apple slices with the flour, sugar and vanilla.
3

Putting it Together

Layer the apple filling mixture into the centre of the circle leaving a 6cm border all the way around. Dot the cubes of butter on top.
4

Fold the pastry border over the edge of the pie overlapping and pleating as you go. Brush with egg wash and sprinkle over the sugar and flaked almonds.
5

Bake

Bake at 200℃ for 15minutes and then turn the oven back to 180℃ for 35minutes.
5

To Serve

Allow to cool slightly, slice and serve with a whiskey caramel sauce and some ice cream.

1

In a large saucepan, heat the sugar and water and allow to bubble for 5 minutes.
2

Don’t stir but swirl until the liquid turns a light amber colour. Lift off the heat and add the butter and whisk until combined.
3

Add in the whiskey, the cream and the salt. It will steam and splutter quite a bit but just keep whisking until it is smooth. Store in a sterilised glass jar.
