Now this could be the easiest recipe on the blog, though the apple galette looks like it is coming from a fancy bakery, or like I spent hours in the kitchen making it, right? But the truth is that you can put the whole thing together in merely less than 15 minutes, then pop it in the oven and bake it until it puffs up and get golden brown. Remove from the oven and glaze the surface with apricot jam. Et voila, that’s it! Your house will smell wonderful and it is super tasty!
Serve it on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, though I would recommend it too with coffee for breakfast. Yes, please a warm slice of the apple galette glazed with apricot jam is pure indulgence.

- Enjoy.
