Winter Fruit Galette

Filling

• 1 cup chopped mixed dried fruit
• 1 cup orange or apple juice
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon five-spice powder
• 1/4 cup triple sec or other orange liqueur
• 1 large apple or pear, chopped
• 2 teaspoons sugar
• 1 teaspoon flour

Crust

• 1 cup whole-wheat pastry flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 cup cold butter, cut in cubes
• 2 tablespoons buttermilk
• Coarse sugar for sprinkling (optional)

1. Combine dried fruit, juice and spices in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, turn off the heat and stir in triple sec. Cover and let stand while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
2. Toss chopped apple with sugar and flour in medium bowl and set aside.
3. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Combine dry ingredients for crust in large bowl. Cut in butter until mixture looks like coarse meal, with some pea-size chunks remaining.
4. Add buttermilk and combine with a fork and then your fingers until dough comes together.
5. Transfer to a lightly floured board and roll to about 1/8" thick. Carefully transfer to baking sheet.
6. Add dried fruit mixture to apples and mix well.
7. Spoon fruit onto center of dough, leaving about two inches around the edges. Fold edges up over filling, pinching excess dough together to form a rough circle. Sprinkle dough with coarse sugar if desired.
8. Bake 30-35 minutes until nicely browned. Serve warm, topped with ice cream or yogurt if you like.
