Sweet and Savory Crostata



Crostatas have become more and more popular over the last few years.  There's a few good reasons for that... You know the saying "easy as pie"? Well a crostata is even easier!  You don't have to make it fit into a pan, make a lattice topping, or blind bake it at all. Just roll the dough out, make a great filling, fold the sides up, and bake. We tend to love the rustic look of it over pies as well. Win-Win-Win. In this class we'll show you how to make an awesome galette/pie crust, and you'll us it to make two galettes, one savory and one sweet.

First we'll give you all the tips and tricks you need to know to make the best crispy flaky pie crust you've ever made. Then we'll start on our savory option, a Butternut Squash, Sausage, and Cheese Crostata.

Once we get that one in the oven, we'll make our sweet dessert, a Salted Caramel Apple w/ Almond Crostata.  This one is indulgent without overdoing it, unless of course you want to over-do it and eat multiple pieces topped with extra salted caramel and whipped cream, no judgement here! By the way, we'll walk you through how to make a delicious caramel sauce and the homemade whipped cream too.
