Apple Galette - The "Low Maintanence" Apple Pie

Want a simple dessert recipe that can be whipped up in about 20 minutes?  Any cravings for apple pie?  Well, this apple galette recipe from Pinch My Salt is your solution!  So instead of reposting the recipe here, the link provides wonderful instructional pictures and lots of tips for non-bakers (love this site!).

I enjoy making this apple galette from time to time because really, it is SO SIMPLE!  All you need is all-purpose flour, cold butter, a few spoonfuls of ice cold water, salt, apples, and sugar (cinnamon optional, but really adds that extra touch), and you can get an apple pie in less than an hour.  An apple galette is smaller than an apple pie, so you won't feel as guilty eating it for dessert.  Comon, you know you want some...
