This Apple Galette with Oatmeal Crust is actually a recipe from last fall, that I never got around to posting. I remember being swamped with assignments at the time, so this went by the wayside & once I had time to edit and post it was not really the season for it anymore. As some of the fall seasonal produce will become abundant soon, now seemed a fine time to publish this apple galette.

I’ve featured the Granny Smith apple in this easy galette recipe. It’s the most common one for me to have on-hand, because it is a favorite snacking apple of both Lil’ Foodie & I. Luckily, it is quite versatile and handles cooking nicely too.

Ingredients
Oatmeal Crust
- 2 cups oatmeal
- ⅓ cup coconut oil or butter
- 2 tbs sugar
- generous pinch of salt skip if using salted butter
Apple Filling

- pinch of salt skip this if using salted butter

- 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Pulse oatmeal in food processor until smooth , almost like flour.
- Add remaining crust ingredients and pulse until well blended. (add a tsp of water or apple juice if too dry)

- Grease the pie dish or coat with non-stick cooking spray, then lay the crust out in it.
- To make filling: Place saute pan over medium heat, add butter. Once melted add apples, saute for a minute, then add remaining ingredients. Saute until sauce is slightly thickened, but apples are not fully cooked. (about 2 minutes).

I am always in the mood for apples — thankfully, they are generally cheap all year round for us here.
