Seed Oil Free Classic Savory Galette Dough
A flaky, buttery galette crust is one of those kitchen fundamentals that makes everything it touches feel a little more special — whether you're folding it around stone fruit, roasted vegetables, or a savory cheese filling. This dough keeps things beautifully simple: just flour, salt, sugar, real unsalted butter, a splash of apple cider vinegar, and ice water. No canola, no vegetable shortening, no mystery oils — just honest ingredients that you can feel good about. The apple cider vinegar is a quiet workhorse here, helping to keep the gluten relaxed so the finished crust stays tender rather than tough. Working cold butter into the flour until you hit that coarse, crumbly texture is the move that creates those irresistible flaky layers once it hits the oven. The dough comes together quickly, rests in the fridge until firm, and rolls out into a rustic round that's ready for whatever filling you have in mind. It's the kind of foundational recipe you'll find yourself coming back to again and again.
