This apple cheddar galette is giving me LIFE.
Yessss I know I’m going over the top with apples. But can you blame me?
The best of the best are in season and to make them into almost-pie is the first step.
If you have a copy of my first book, Seriously Delish, then you know that I have a white cheddar apple cobbler in there. Or crumble! Maybe it’s a crumble.
Whatever it is, it’s fantastic and it’s one of the first recipes that got my family on board with the whole apple + cheddar combo.
I know that a lot of you have enjoyed the combo for ages. That there hasn’t been an apple pie slice served without cheddar cheese. But not here!
At least, not in that way. Apples have always been one of my favorite snacks so it wasn’t unusual for me to have an apple AND cheddar on a plate as a snack, but never eaten together. You know?
Well. If you haven’t tried the combo, you must.
It’s everything!
I used my regular galette crust (why do I feel like the queen of galettes? I googled howsweeteats + galettes and I have so many! Because pie is terrifying?) and went with this cheddar version. I first shared it this past summer when I made tomato pie (it’s life changing, for real) and it’s a dreamy, cheesy crust!
But! My favorite part of this whole thing might be the thyme butter. Brush just a touch of it on the apples once the whole thing comes out of the oven and you will be in heaven. It’s so decadent and buttery and indulgent and delicious. While still being a slightly lighter fruit dessert!
Before you tell me I’m crazy, I’m not saying this is LIGHT, but it’s not as decadent as a huge slice of double chocolate cake or something. Right?
I mean, it’s made with fruit… SO.
Anyhoo, you know I love a galette because it’s quicker and easier than pie. There is no stress over perfection – you just fold it into a “rustic” shape and then serve it on a fancy tray or plate from “Pottery Barn” (read: Home Goods or TJ Maxx) for that whole rustic vibe.
And it feels fancy!
Seriously tastes like the best slice of fall you’ve ever had.
