Skull Apple Pie Galette | a French Twist for Halloween

Here’s my traditional Halloween pie — a creation I’ve been baking every year since 2021. Born from a simple visual idea, it has evolved over time into my own version of The Nightmare Before Christmas galette. Beneath its golden, flaky crust adorned with tiny bat cutouts lie layers of orchard apple butter, silky almond cream, and carved apple skulls glazed with spiced caramel. An enchanting dessert worthy of Jack Skellington himself.
