 Apple-Pear Galette Recipe
My experience in making cookies is not too great, but I'll tell you what - this is the most delicious biscuit! Delicate crispy dough, nutty paste and fruit filling with caramel notes is super! You can add a ball of ice cream to a piece of warm biscuits, sprinkled with caramel sprinkles, and it will be "just some kind of holiday!".

  4. Cut the butter into cubes, add it to the dry mixture and rub it into crumbs with your fingers or chop it with a knife. Do not do this too carefully, it will be even better if small pieces of butter remain in the dough.

  5. Gradually pour ice water into the dough, stirring it with a fork. When the dough starts to stick together, it means there is enough water. It took me 4 spoons. Do not try to knead the dough too thoroughly and make it homogeneous, because in this case gluten will begin to develop actively, and as a result you will not get a layered crispy dough base.

  13. Roll out the dough and bake the cake. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and leave it at room temperature for 5-10 minutes.

Carefully wrap the rolled base on a rolling pin and transfer to a cutting board or baking sheet covered with baking paper.

  20. Bake the galette on the lower level of the oven for 40-45 minutes, until its crust turns golden, and the filling becomes soft and begins to bubble. If the cake becomes too dark by the end of baking, cover the top of the cake with foil. Remove the finished galette from the oven and cool completely.
