Think of this galette as a savory version of apple pie. The free-form flaky crust has fresh rosemary and parmesan cheese and the filling is made with fresh apples, apple butter, sour cream, and more fresh rosemary.
Crust
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus extra for sprinkling
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon cornmeal
1/2 teaspoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cup unsalted butter, cut into pieces and chilled
1/4 cup cold water
2 tablespoons sour cream
Filling
1/3 cup apple butter
1/3 cup sour cream
5 cups Mutsu or Granny Smith apples, peeled and sliced
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon fresh rosemary
1 egg, MIXED WITH
2 tablespoons water (for egg wash)
For crust, combine flour, Parmesan, sugar, cornmeal, rosemary and baking powder in a food processor. Add butter and cut in until a rough crumbly texture forms.
Stir water and sour cream to blend and add to flour mixture. Combine until dough comes together, then chill for an hour.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a large baking tray with parchment paper.
For filling, combine apple butter and sour cream and set aside.
In a large bowl, toss apples with sugar and rosemary.
Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to a circle about 18 inches across. Place dough onto prepared baking tray.
Spread apple butter mixture in center of dough, in a circle about 9 inches across. Spoon apples over apple butter mixture.
Fold edges of dough over apples, in 6 folds (there should be a small opening in the center of the tart, about 4 inches across). Brush pastry with egg wash and sprinkle lightly with grated Parmesan.
Bake for 45 to 50 minutes until golden brown. Allow to cool for at least 20 minutes before slicing.

This recipe turned out amazing but it is a lot of work. I'll probably make it again because it was so good but as I said, it's a lot of work. The crust and filling were both incredible. I might use the filling in an easier crust too when I don't have time for the crust from scratch.
