Apple Cranberry Mini Galettes

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup granulated sugar
½ cup Butter Premium Extra Virgin Olive Oil
4-6 Tbsp ice water
½ tsp salt
2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
½ cup fresh or frozen cranberries
¼ cup brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp nutmeg
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Coarse sugar, for sprinkling
Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, for serving (optional)

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil, mixing continuously until the dough starts to come together.
Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until a dough forms. You may not need all the water.
Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and shape each into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
While dough chills, mix the filling: in a bowl combine sliced apples, cranberries, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Toss until evenly coated. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out each chilled dough disk into a rough 6-inch circle.
Divide the fruit filling among the dough circles, leaving about a 1-inch border. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling to create a rustic pleated edge, leaving the center exposed.
Brush the crust edges with beaten egg and sprinkle coarse sugar over the crust. Place galettes on prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, until crust is golden brown and the fruit is tender and bubbling.
Let the galettes cool slightly before serving. Optionally top with whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream.
