Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1/2 cup buckwheat flour
- 1/4 cup almond meal
- 1/4 cup millet flour
- 1/4 cup tapioca or arrowroot flour
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 2 tablespoons ice water
- 2 medium apples, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1/4 cup rolled oats
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine buckwheat flour, almond meal, millet flour, tapioca flour, sugar, xanthan gum, and sea salt. Add chilled butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Form into a disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). In a bowl, toss apple slices with lemon juice, sugar, cinnamon, and cardamom. Set aside.
- For the crumble topping, mix rolled oats, brown sugar, cardamom, and melted butter until combined.
- Remove dough from fridge and let sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes. Dust a surface with tapioca flour and divide dough into four equal parts. Roll out each piece into a circle about 1/8 inch thick.
- Place apple slices in the center of each dough circle, leaving a 1-inch border. Fold the edges over the apples, pleating as necessary. Sprinkle crumble topping over the apples.
- Transfer galettes to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
Notes
For best results, use firm apples like Honeycrisp or Granny Smith. The galettes can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for added indulgence.
