Ingredients

For the crust: 

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting

2 tablespoons sugar, plus more for sprinkling

1/2 teaspoon salt

6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

1 large egg, plus 1 egg for brushing

1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

For the filling:

3 tablespoons unsalted butter

3 Golden Delicious apples (about 1 1/2 pounds), peeled and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices

1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar

1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

2 cups blackberries (about 10 ounces)

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest

2 tablespoons apple jelly

Directions

  1. Make the crust: Pulse the flour, sugar and salt in a food processor. Add the butter and pulse into pea-size pieces. Add 1 egg, the lemon juice and 2 tablespoons ice water and pulse until the dough clumps together but has not yet formed a ball, gradually adding up to 1 tablespoon more ice water as needed. Turn out the dough onto a piece of plastic wrap; press into a disk and wrap. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight.
  2. Make the filling: Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the apples, 2 tablespoons sugar and the ginger. Cook, stirring, until just softened, about 5 minutes. Let cool. Toss the blackberries with the remaining 1/3 cup sugar, the cornstarch, vanilla and lemon zest in a large bowl. Add the cooled apples and gently toss to combine.
  3. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll out the dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet and refrigerate 10 minutes.
  4. Spoon the fruit mixture onto the dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold the edge of the dough over the fruit by about 2 inches, pleating as needed.
  5. Lightly beat the remaining egg with 1 teaspoon water. Brush the dough with the egg wash and sprinkle with sugar. Bake until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling, about 40 minutes. Microwave the jelly in a small heatproof bowl until melted, about 45 seconds. Brush over the fruit. Let cool on the baking sheet.

This recipe was okay, my husband liked it but I thought it was a little lackluster. The lemon zest was a nice touch to the blackberries, but the crust was a little dense/hard and there was too much fruit for the size of crust. In the future I would increase lemon zest or turn it into an apple-blueberry galette with cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Be sure to roll crust out to the appropriate size (not too small/thick crust) and slice apples thinly to ensure they become soft.
