Potatoes are a staple side dish in many forms, and this Potato & Apple Galette is a delightful twist on the classic. Baked upside-down, it features two layers of slightly caramelized potato slices with a middle layer of sweet apples. This combination not only adds a touch of sweetness but also enhances the overall flavor of the potatoes.
Prepare a small (6-inch) pie dish by lining the bottom with parchment paper and the sides and parchment paper with butter. Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F.
Core the apple and slice apple and potatoes thinly by hand or with a mandoline. Place the slices in separate bowls and drizzle slices with butter, salt and pepper and toss to coat.
Arrange 2 layers of potato in the bottom of the pie dish (sorry for the mess, I dropped a potato slice).
Add a layer of apple slices on top of the potato slices.
Sprinkle the apple layer with finely chopped sage.
Cover apples with final layer of potato slices. Drizzle with any left-over butter from the potato or apple bowls.
Slide Potato & Apple Galette in the oven and bake for 40-50 minutes or until potato slices are done. If the top turns too brown before potato is done, cover with aluminum foil.
Turn galette onto a plate. If you want the top to be more caramelized, broil the galette until it reaches color and crispiness you like (make sure you use a broiler-safe plate).
