¼ cup Brown Sugar
½ cup Butter softened
½ teaspoon Cinnamon

Optional Toppings

Caramel Sauce optional

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350° Fahrenheit.
Take 2 circles of refrigerated pie dough and make 1 large ball. On a piece of parchment paper, roll out the pie dough to a 12-inch circle.
Refrigerated pie crust dough (1 box)
Move the parchment paper and dough circle to the baking sheet.
Peel, core, and slice the apples to ¼-inch thick slices. Place the apple slices into a large mixing bowl.
4 Granny Smith Apples
To the apples, add 3 tablespoons of flour, granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon. Mix to combine.
⅔ cup Granulated Sugar, 3 tablespoons All-Purpose Flour, 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
Place the cinnamon apples into the center of the prepared pie dough. Make sure to leave a 2-inch border of dough. Spread out the apples evenly.
Start to fold up the dough border over the top of the apples, working your way around the circle.
In a mixing bowl, combine the butter, flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Mix the crumb mixture together with a fork, pastry cutter, or your fingers. Place the crumb topping over the apples.
½ cup All-Purpose Flour, ¼ cup Brown Sugar, ½ cup Butter, ½ teaspoon Cinnamon
Bake the Apple Galette for 40 to 50 minutes until the apples are tender. The crumb topping and pie crust will be golden brown.
Let cool for at least 10-minutes. Serve as is or with any desired toppings.

Notes

You can use homemade pie dough in place of the refrigerated pie dough. Make sure you have an amount equal to 2 pie crusts.

Vanilla Ice Cream, Caramel, and Whipped Toppings are wonderful served with this apple galette.
