Ingredients

Servings

• 2 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• ¹⁄₄ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsalted butter
• 4 tablespoon Cold water
• 4 large Apples
• ¹⁄₂ cup Cranberries
• ¹⁄₄ cup Granulated sugar
• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 1 beaten Egg
• optional for dusting Powdered sugar

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the cold water, a tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Shape the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
2. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a circle about 12 inches in diameter. Transfer the dough to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
3. In a bowl, combine the apples, cranberries, sugar, cinnamon, and cornstarch. Toss until the fruit is coated evenly. Spoon the fruit mixture onto the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold the edges of the dough over the fruit, pleating as necessary.
4. Brush the edges of the dough with the beaten egg. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the fruit is bubbly. Allow the galette to cool for 15 minutes before serving. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
5. Serve warm or at room temperature.
