This is a light and elegant apple tart, sweetened with honey and flavored with a little Lavender and touch of True Cinnamon. The Lavender gives the apples a delightful rosemary-floral taste. It's so good and so pretty, it can be served at any occasion. Try it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream - perfect!
Ingredients:
1 ready-made pie crust
5 medium apples (such as Granny Smith) peeled, cored, & cut into 1/8 inch slices
1 Tblspn lemon juice
3 Tblspns sugar
1 Tblspn all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp True Cinnamon
1/4 cup apricot jam
1/3 cup honey
1 tsp Lavender
1 egg white
Directions: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Roll out the dough and place it on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Mix together the apples, lemon juice, 2 Tblspns of sugar, and flour. Spread the apricot jam in the middle of the rolled out dough. Arrange the apple mixture over the jam. Sprinkle the top of the apples with the True Cinnamon. Mix together the honey and the Lavender and then pour this mixture over the top of the apples. Gently fold the pie crust dough around the apples, making an edge and leaving the center apples open and uncovered. Brush the edges of the pie dough with the egg white and then sprinkle with the remaining 1 Tblspn of sugar. Bake the galette in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Cover the edges of the galette with foil, if needed, to keep it from getting too brown. Reduce the oven heat to 375 degrees and bake for an additional 20 - 30 minutes. Remove the galette from the oven when the apples are softened and the crust is golden. Cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
