Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter
  • 2 large yellow onions
  • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 2 medium Fuji apples
  • 2 tablespoons apple jelly
  • Fresh thyme sprigs

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: Whisk flour and salt in a bowl. Cut in cold butter until crumbly. Add ice water gradually until dough forms. Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  2. Caramelize the Onions: Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions, salt, and pepper; cook for 15-20 minutes until soft. Stir in brown sugar and vinegar; cook until well caramelized, about 10-15 minutes.
  3. Preheat Oven: Set to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment.
  4. Assemble Galette: Roll out dough to a 12-inch round on floured surface. Spread onions on dough, leaving a 2-inch border, then layer sliced apples on top.
  5. Form Galette: Fold edges over filling, crimping as desired. Brush with egg wash made from whisking egg and water.
  6. Bake: Bake for 35-45 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Glaze and Garnish: Melt apple jelly; brush over warm galette and garnish with thyme before serving.
