Kind of like a poor man's apple pie. This is not a very pretty looking galette mainly because the dough is a pain to work with. I have made a lot of pie dough and tart doughs and each time I tell myself I'm just going to buy pre-made crusts because the dough is just not worth the hassle... and each time I make everything from scratch. Why do I torment myself so?
You will need to translate the recipe but luckily, the site has a translate button on the left side of the page.
Also, the galettes on the site with the recipe look WAY better than mine did.

Apple Pie
Ingredients:
Filling:
6 cored, peeled and diced apples (I used Gala)
1 1/2 tbls. Apple Pie Spice --or-- 1 tablespoon cinnamon, 1/4 tbls. allspice, 1/4 tablespoon nutmeg
1/2 c. sugar
1 tbls. melted butter
1/4 c. brown sugar
Crust (makes one layer):
1 1/4 c. all purpose flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 c. butter diced finely
1/4 c. ice water
Directions:
Preheat oven: 375 F
Filling:
Mix all the ingredients together, set aside.
Crust:
Double the recipe to make both pie crust layers.
Dice the butter and place in freezer.
Mix salt and flour.
Add diced butter to form crumbles.
Mix in water to make dough. Don't overwork the dough.
Refrigerate dough for about 2 hours.
Roll out 1/2 the dough (if you doubled the recipe) and place in 9 in. pie pan.
Add filling.
Roll out next layer and cover.
You can make a design on the top layer if you wish.
Bake for about 90 minutes.
