Instructions
Prepare the crust by combining flour, cold cubed plant butter, sugar, and salt in a food processor until crumbly. Add ice water gradually until dough forms.
Roll out the dough on parchment paper, then transfer to a baking sheet. Arrange sliced apples in the center, fold edges over, and brush with almond milk. Sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 30 minutes until crust is golden and apples are tender.
Meanwhile, make the peanut butter caramel by simmering brown sugar, coconut milk, butter, peanut butter, vanilla, and salt until thickened.
Drizzle the caramel over the warm galette and serve with vanilla ice cream and optional preserves.
Notes
Use firm, sweet apples like Honeycrisp for best flavor. Keep dough cold for flaky crust.
