The French word “galet” literally means “smooth, flat pebble,” indicating something round. I’ve taken liberties and made this a rectangular fruit-filled dessert.
I hope you love it as much as we do!

Is Apple Galette an Easy Recipe?
The boys say this is the best recipe for apple galette, they love it! And I love that such an easy low-carb dessert recipe is also super healthy.
All you have to do to make this is whip up my easy Low-Carb Pie Crust from Almond Flour recipe, chop up a couple of apples, stuff ’em in, and you’re off to the races.
How to Make Apple Galette from Scratch
My Low-Carb Apple Galette filling is made with only six ingredients total, so you can throw it together easily.
Gluten Free Pie Crust with Almond Flour
Simply divide my Low-Carb Almond Flour Pie Crust in half, using one half for the low-carb crust in this recipe.
Save the other half for another use, wrapping it in parchment, placing it in a plastic bag, and storing it in the refrigerator.
My Low-Carb Almond Flour Pie Crust will last for about 5 days when stored this way.
How to Make Rustic Apple Galette with Almond Flour
The key to making this Low-Carb Apple Galette recipe is to roll out the dough so that it’s very thin. After that, you’ll place the apple slices in the center.
Next, fold the crust over the edges, as I did in the photo. The trick to this is to use the parchment to help you fold. That way, the flaky dough will move more easily.
Fruit Galette Recipe
Don’t be distressed if the dough for this galette breaks, simply patch it with your fingers.
Galettes are meant to be simple desserts, and perfection is not an ingredient in this luscious rustic-style apple pie.
Gala Apples or Braeburn Apples
I like to use Gala apples or Braeburn for this luscious apple dessert, but really any type of apple will work.
The other day I made this gluten free dessert recipe with Granny Smith apples and it was tart and delicious!
How to Prepare Apples for Galette
Another tip is to slice the apples very, very thin. I use this slicer and then cut each of the pieces into fourths.
What Do You Eat with Apple Galette?
We love topping our Low-Carb Apple Galette with some high-fat Whipped Cream for the perfect keto dessert.
If you’re on a Dairy-Free Diet, top it with my Dairy-Free Whipped Cream recipe or my Vegan Vanilla Ice Cream.
How Do You Store Apple Galette?
This Low-Carb Apple Galette doesn’t last long in our house. With two grown boys now in their twenties, I have few if any leftovers these days when they’re home.
But if you’re wondering how to store your apple galette simply make sure that it cools overnight, then wrap it in tin foil and refrigerate for up to five days.
Apple Galette vs Apple Pie
The boys and I love making apple galettes because they’re so easy to throw together.
Pies and galettes are both pastry-based desserts that are filled then baked, but galettes are much less fussy than pies.
Rustic Apple Pie
In fact, we can think of an apple galette as the lazy baker’s rustic apple pie baked on a baking sheet instead of in a pie pan.
As opposed to pie, with galettes, there is no crimping, blind baking, latticework, and other kinds of fancy stuff that takes loads of time but rarely if ever improves flavor when it comes to the final result.
Apple Pie in Mason Jars
If you’re looking for an easy apple pie recipe, I have this darling Apple Pie in Mason Jars from my New York Times bestselling book, Paleo Cooking from Elana’s Pantry that I’m sharing with you as an exclusive here on the website.
Almond Flour Recipes
My Apple Pie in Mason Jars is can be found in my third book; I have many low carb Almond Flour Recipes here on the website as well.
Nutrition Information
As an aside, I provide the nutrition information for the recipes in all of my cookbooks so that you can calculate your macros if you’re on a Keto Diet.
The recipes in Paleo Cooking are so low-carb that it’s a fantastic keto diet cookbook. Find the nutrition info for the book here.
Best Keto Sweetener
You’ll notice my Low-Carb Apple Galette recipe is sweetened with maple syrup and stevia. I use this combination of sweeteners because I cannot digest traditional low-carb sweeteners like erythritol.
Wondering, What’s the Best Sweetener for the Keto Diet? I’ve got you covered.
The Best Low-Carb Dessert Recipes with Apples
Here are some of my favorite low-carb dessert recipes with apples for you.
Apple Cinnamon Cake
Don’t have any almond flour on hand? My Apple Cinnamon Cake is made with an almond butter base that’s lightly sweetened with apples, two tablespoons of orange juice, and a touch of honey.
How to Make Homemade Applesauce
If you’re wondering what to do with a bountiful apple harvest, I have the best Homemade Apple Sauce recipe for you.
Both of my boys are absolutely obsessed with homemade applesauce. I make it so often that I don’t know if they’ve ever eaten jarred, store bought applesauce 🍎😝
The photo of the boys above is from 2011.
Gluten Free Apple Crisp with Blackberries
Another one of my healthy gluten free dessert recipes that we adore is Apple Blackberry Crisp.
This fruit filled dessert is spiked with lemon juice and vanilla, capped with low-carb almond flour topping. I like to think of it as a deconstructed, upside-down apple pie.
Low-Carb Apple Tart Recipe
My Paleo Apple Tart recipe is heaven encased in a low-carb Pecan Tart Crust, filled with sliced apples, cinnamon, a dash of lemon, and honey.
It’s one of those great Jewish desserts that I love serving at Rosh Hashanah.
