Apple Galette

Ingredients:

1. 1 teaspoon  fennel seeds 
2. 1/2 teaspoon  kosher salt
3. 1/3 cup sugar, plus more for sprinkling
4. 3-4 mediaum apples (such as Pink Lady, Honeycrisp, or Granny Smith), scrubbed, cored, peeled and thinly sliced
5. 1/4 cup pineapple cubes (optional)
6. 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
7. 1 teaspoon  vanilla extract
8. 1 teaspoon corn starch
9. 1 pie crust store bought or made for scratch

1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Toast fennel seeds until golden brown and fragrant. Let cool, and grind to powder. Transfer to a medium bowl and add salt and 1/3 cup sugar.  add apples and toss to coat. Add vinegar and vanilla; toss gently.
2. Arrange apple mixture in the center of chilled dough (still on parchment on baking sheet) and spread out evenly, overlapping slices if desired and leaving a 3" border. Fold edges of dough up and over fruit, pleating as needed and being careful that folded edge of dough doesn’t tear (if it does, patch with dough scraps and pinch to seal). Sprinkle sugar evenly over dough.
3. Place galette in oven and immediately reduce heat to 375°F. Bake, rotating halfway through, until crust is deep golden brown everywhere, apples are softened, and juices are bubbling, 45–50 minutes. Let galette cool 2 hours.
4. Serve galette with whipped cream or ice cream if desired.
