Easy Apple Galette
1 puff pastry sheet, thawed
1-1/2 granny smith apples, cored, and VERY thinly sliced
1/4 cup sugar
Pinch, sea salt
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons Kerrygold butter, cold and diced
1 teaspoon sugar for sprinkling on crust (optional)
—GLAZE
1/4 cup apricot preserves
1 tablespoon calvados (or brandy, orange, or apple juice)
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Unfold the thawed puff pastry, pressing any cracked seams together with wet fingers. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Toss the sliced apples with the sugar, salt, and cinnamon, then arrange overlapping apples slices on the puff pastry. Dot with butter.
Bake for about 15-30 minutes, rotating every 5 minutes. The galette is done when the crust is puffed up and golden brown and the apples are tender.
Thin the apricot preserves with calvados and microwave for 20-30 seconds. Stir. While the galette still hot, brush with apricot & calvados mixture, and serve.
