About

Butterscotch: melted butter, caramelized sugars, cream, a little kick from the Scotch, and a touch of salt to round out the palate? Yeah, we swoon. We often use Fuji apples for these galettes, but feel free to use any of your favorite baking apples. This recipe can also be made into fewer but larger galettes; increase baking time slightly for larger sizes.
