Puff pastry apple galette is quick and easy to make — you’ll have a delicious apple treat full of the warm, cozy flavors of fall quicker than you can say apple pie. Perfect with ice cream, salted caramel sauce, or both!
Line a baking pan with parchment paper and set aside (see notes).
In a large bowl, toss all apple galette filling ingredients together and let sit for about 15 minutes to allow the flavors to combine.
In a small bowl, combine egg and milk for the egg wash and set aside.
Once your puff pastry sheets are properly thawed, gently place and roll them out onto your baking sheet and place apple slices in the middle, leaving about an inch border all around.
Fold the edges over the apples, pinch the corners to seal, and brush with egg wash.
Place the galettes in the fridge while you preheat your oven to 375F.
When ready, bake for 30-40 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are juicy and tender.
Allow the galettes to cool slightly in the pan. Serve warm. Top with ice cream, drizzle with salted caramel sauce, or serve on its own.

Notes
If you can't find Granny Smith apples, you can use any baking apple you like. See post for more info re: how to choose baking apples.
You’ll need a pan that’s large enough to fit 2 puff pastry sheets (I use a 21x15 inch commercial-sized baking pan). You can also use two smaller pans, one puff pastry sheet on each pan.
To avoid a soggy galette, make sure not to overfill your crust and to drain as much of the liquid from the fruit as possible before using them.
You know your galette is done when the crust is a golden brown and the apples are nice and soft.
