   Pastry

   • 1 ¼ Cup All-purpose flour
   • 3 Tbsp White sugar
   • ¼ Cup Corn starch
   • ½ Cup Salted butter
   • *Lemon zest (optional)
   • 1 Large egg
   • ¼ Cup Water

   Mix dry ingredients in large bowl, reserve 2 Tbsp dry mixture to thicken filling. Cut in butter, using two forks or a pastry blender. Leave large lumps of butter visible.

   For the Filling

   • 3-4 Whole apples, skin on, mixed variety
   • ¼-1/2 Cup White sugar
   • 1/2 Tsp Cinnamon or apple pie spice
   • Whole lemon, *zested and juiced
   • 2 Tbsp Reserved dry pastry mixture
   • 1 Cup Corn flake cereal
   • 1 Tbsp Reserved egg wash

   Preheat BBQ to its highest setting, all burners. Oil a 12 inch oven-proof skillet: a pizza pan or parchment-lined baking sheet will also work.

   Slice top & bottom off each apple; quarter and slice the core from each piece. Thinly slice each quarter across the grain. In the same mixing bowl, toss apples, lemon juice, sugar, reserved dry mix, and cinnamon.

3. 3

   Roll out pastry to a size 4-5 inches larger than the skillet. Try to get the crust thinner than an ordinary pie crust, an eighth inch or less. Patch any tears with a piece from the perimeter. Roll the crust over your rolling pin and lay it across an oiled cast iron skillet. Scatter the corn flakes in the middle of the dough and arrange apples over the corn flakes. Roughly fold/pinch/crimp the edges over the filling leaving the centre of the galette uncovered. Brush the top pastry with the reserved egg wash

4. 4

   Turn one burner of heated BBQ completely off and place skillet in that position. Close the lid: the working burner(s) should be able to maintain a temperature of 350-400°F. At the 30-minute mark, use a spatula to check for browning. Add another 10 minutes cooking time if necessary and/or move the skillet to the live burner for 3-5 minutes. Cool briefly and serve.
