Healthier version of Apple Galette

A few weeks ago I went to Trader Joe's  with my mom, and we tried a sample of an apple galette and we instantly fell in love with it.  It was so delicious, but when we looked at the nutrition we realized how unhealthy it was, so of course my first idea was to try and make my own version of it that was at least a little bit healthier.  After looking up various versions and recipes of crusts, and galette's I then came up with my own recipe.
So this week I'm here to share my recipe for a "healthier" version of an apple galette.  Overall you can make as many modifications to this recipe as you'd like. When I made the crust I tried to make my own version without butter, and instead used applesauce, and whole wheat flour.  This tasted actually pretty good, but the dough was a little chewy and rough, although I believe that may have been because of the whole wheat flour I used.  If you would like to though your welcome to just use a regular crust recipe, or a store bought one if you feel like it. So without further ado lets get started with this recipe.

Crust:
 Ingredients:

• 1 1/4 cup flour 
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 10 tbsp unsweetened apple sauce 
• 2 tbsp water

Directions:

1.  In a food processor pulse together the flour and the salt.
2. Add in the applesauce and pulse together the ingredients.
3. If  the crust is still to dry you can put in the water until it reaches the wanted consistency for your dough.
4. Roll the dough into a ball put on a plate and cover, then place in the refrigerator for at least 30 min, or up to 2 day.

Galette:
Ingredients:

• 2 apples cored and thinly sliced
• 2 tbsp of sugar
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tbsp of honey
• Juice of 1/3 a lemon
• ball of dough for the crust

Directions:

1. Before starting make sure to heat your oven to 350°F
2. Put the apple slices into a bowl, then squeeze the lemon juice onto them.  Mix together until all the apples are coated.
3. Then add the honey to the apples and make sure its coated completely.
4. Take your ball of dough and flatten it out on a buttered cooking sheet, so you have a thin circular crust. 
5. Lay the apples in a circular spiral out onto the crust.
6. In a separate small bowl mix together the cinnamon and sugar together.
7. Sprinkle 1/2 of the sugar mixture onto the apples and crust.
8. Fold in the crust so it covers half of the apples. Then sprinkle the rest of your sugar mixture on the apples and a little bit onto the crust as well.
9.  Put the galette into the heated oven and bake for 30 minutes.

Glaze:
Ingredients:

• 1 tbsp of melted butter
• 1 tbsp of honey
• 1 tbsp of water

Directions:

1. Mix together the butter, honey, and water
2. Take the baking gallete out after 30min and brush the glaze over the crust, and drizzle the extra over the apples
3. Put the galette bake into the oven and bake for another 5-10min.
4. Take the galette out and let it cool, then serve as itself, or top with whipped cream if you please. Hope you enjoy!!
