Filling and Crust

Method

Preparation and Assembly

  1. 1

    Make the Crust

    In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in cold water, a tablespoon at a time, until mixture forms a dough. Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Filling

    In another bowl, toss the sliced Granny Smith and Gala apples with cinnamon and 1/4 cup of caramel sauce. Let it sit for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Crostata

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Pile the apple mixture in the center, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold the edges of the dough over the apples, pleating as necessary.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Drizzle the remaining caramel sauce over the warm crostata and serve with scoops of buttermilk ice cream on the side.
