Apple Galette
Have you finished planning what will be on your table for Thanksgiving? If you’re still looking for an easy dessert idea, this Caramel Apple Galette couldn’t be easier!
I’m one of those people who love to try new things. So much in fact, that we rarely have the exact same thing twice. Traditionally, we usually have a few pie choices for Thanksgiving dinner, but a few years ago, I wanted to change things up with something a bit different.
I wanted something easy – and maybe similar to a pie. This Caramel Apple Galette was the perfect solution and was well received by our dinner guests. Enjoy!
