Prepare a dry caramel, deglaze with the butter and calvados.
Sauté the apple quarters until translucent, caramel in colour and soft all the way through.
Finish baking in a 140°C oven for approximately 20 to 40 minutes (depending on how cooked they were in the pan) to extract as much moisture as possible.
Let cool.

Galette finishing touches
Perform 5 single turns, respecting the resting time between turns.
Roll out the dough to a thickness of 2 mm and cut into Ø26 cm circles.
Let rest.
Pipe 330 g of frangipane cream into Ø20 cm rings on a sheet of baking paper.
Cut the caramelized apple quarters in half crosswise and insert 160 g of apple pieces into each frangipane insert.
Sprinkle the apple pieces with a few dry sponge crumbs then place in the freezer.
Using a pastry brush, moisten the edges of a puff pastry circle with water.
Place a frangipane insert in the centre.
Top with another circle of puff pastry and close the galette, giving it a quarter turn.
Turn the galette over, brush it three times with egg wash (leave in the refrigerator for 30 minutes between each application).
Score curved lines radiating out from the centre as for a Pithiviers galette. Prick with a fork and bake in a 170°C convection oven for approximately 40 minutes.
Remove from the oven, sprinkle with dextrose and bake for another 10 minutes at 170°C (fan full speed).
Let cool, then place a Ø5 cm ring in the centre of the galette, moisten with a little syrup and sprinkle with caramelized oats.
