Number Of Ingredients 13

Galette:
1 package ready-to-bake refrigerated pie dough (7.5 ounces)
6 medium Golden Delicious apples, peeled and thinly sliced (about 2 pounds)
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 teaspoons apple jelly
1 egg, lightly beaten
Sauce:
3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet pan with parchment paper or coat it with cooking spray.
Working on a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to a 14-inch circle. Transfer to the baking sheet pan. (The edges of the dough will fall off the sides of the pan.
Toss the apples with the sugar and cinnamon. Place the apples decoratively on the dough, leaving a 2-inch perimeter free all the way around.
Warm the jelly until it is smooth and spreadable; brush it over the surface of the apple slices. Fold the 2-inch edge of the dough in toward the center, pleating as you make your way around the circle. Brush the dough with the egg and place in the center of the oven. Bake 25 minutes, until the crust is golden brown.
Make the sauce: combine the sugar with 1/4 cup milk in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring until the sugar is dissolved, for about 2 minutes. Allow the mixture to come to a boil and cook (without stirring) until the sauce begins to turn amber, about 6 to 8 minutes. Carefully tilt the pan to swirl the liquid until the sauce is light brown. Remove from heat and add the cream, vanilla and butter, stirring until the butter melts. Add the salt. The sauce will thicken as it stands.
Serve the galette drizzled with half the caramel sauce.
