Heirloom Apple “Chutney” Galette

  • 4-5 heirloom apples, peeled, sliced (select 2-3 varieties of apples)
  • Zest of one lemon
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 3 TB flour
  • 1/2 cup dried currants
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds
  • 1” piece fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 tsp ground cardamom
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground clove
  • Pinch salt
  • 1 sheet rolled savory pie pastry (frozen or home made)

This rustic apple tart featured local heirloom apples and lots of warm spices. Yum!

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine all filling ingredients in a bowl and mix well to combine. On a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, lay your rolled pie crust out flat.  Trim the edges so it is a rough circle shape.  About 3 inches from the edge, pile the apple filling up in a neat pile. Fold the edges of the crust in overlapping leaves. The center will be left open so people can see what is inside the tart!  Place the tart in a preheated oven for 45-55 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.  Remove from the oven and rest for 30-45 minutes before serving.  Serve warm with ice cream.
