Make pastry dough by putting the flour and diced butter in a bowl and freezing for 30 minutes. Remove from freezer and place in the work bowl of a food processor.
Pulse 10 times in 1 second bursts. Mix the wet ingredients together and add to the dry. Pulse 7 to 10 more times, 1 second bursts.
Pour the dough out onto plastic wrap and form into a disc. Cover with plastic and refrigerate for 1 hour minimum.
Roll dough out to a large circle, transfer to a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Mix cream cheese, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and vanilla together until very smooth.
Spread on top of dough leaving 2-3 inches on the edges to form the crust. Toss apples in remaining sugar, cinnamon and corn starch.
Top with apples in a decorative spiral pattern. Fold galette edges up around apples. Paint edges of dough with egg yolk and water wash and sprinkle with sugar.
Bake at 350F for 30 minutes or until golden brown & bubbly. Make glaze, mix glaze ingredients together in a microwave safe bowl and cook for 30 seconds, stir well.
Cook in 5 second pulses, stirring after each heat cycle, until the glaze turns transparent and its difficult to cook a full 5 seconds with out it overflowing the bowl.
