Assembly

11. On a flour-dusted surface, roll out the dough into a circle and slide the dough onto a sheet of parchment paper or reusable baking paper.

12. Spread the almond frangipane on the center of the dough, leaving some space from the rim. 

13. Arrange the apple slices on top of the frangipane. 

14. Fold up the edges of the dough to close up the galette.

15. Slide the parchment paper onto a baking tray and chill the galette in the freezer for about 20 minutes.

16. Preheat your oven to 400°F/200°C in the meantime and combine the leftover egg from the frangipane filling with some milk to form an egg wash. 

17. Once the galette is slightly hardened, brush the egg wash over the dough.

18. Bake the galette in the preheated oven for 25-30 mins until the crust is golden brown. 

19. Garnish with toasted almond slices, enjoy!
