Baking with apples makes some of my most favorite pies and pastries. They are also easy available year round, although usually best in late fall. Here I made galettes, which are very easy to make pastries. They are free form and have a rustic look to them. That makes them also perfect picnic food.
The apples are arranged on top of a creamy frangipane layer, which is an almond cream, either made with marzipan or ground almonds. You should use tart apples, like Elstar or Golden Delicious to have a perfect match between the sweet and sour components.
