Yield Makes two 9-inch tarts

Number Of Ingredients 9

All-purpose flour, for dusting
1/2 recipe Pate Brisee for Plum Crumb Pie
8 firm but ripe apricots (about 1 1/2 pounds), pitted and cut into sixths
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar, plus more for sprinkling
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
Pinch of salt
1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
Zest of 1/2 lemon
1 tablespoon heavy cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat baking mat, and set aside on a floured surface. Roll dough out to a 14-inch circle, and place on paper.
  • In a medium bowl, toss apricots together with sugar, cornstarch, salt, lemon juice, and zest. Place apricot mixture on the center of the dough. Spread out, leaving a 2-inch border of dough; turn ends of apricots upward. Fold the dough up and over the apricots, making a crease or fold every 4 to 5 inches to enclose fruit and prevent juices from seeping out.
  • Brush dough thoroughly with heavy cream; sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 15 minutes, and lower oven temperature to 375 degrees, rotating baking sheet 45 degrees. Continue to bake until tart is evenly browned and apricots are bubbling, about 25 minutes more.
  • Transfer tart from baking sheet to a cooling rack, and cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature.

This tart was a disappointment. It was dry, tart, and overall just not very good.

I'm glad I tried this tart, but I don't think I'll be making it again.

This tart is a good starting point, but it needs some tweaking to make it really great.

I would make this tart again, but I would make a few changes. I would use sweeter apricots, add more butter to the crust, and bake it for a shorter amount of time.

Overall, I thought this tart was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't amazing either.

The apricots in my tart were a bit tart. I think I would use sweeter apricots next time.

I found the instructions for this tart to be a bit confusing. The tart also took longer to bake than the recipe said it would.

This tart is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good.

This apricot tart was a delightful treat! The crust was flaky and buttery, and the filling was sweet and tangy. The apricots were perfectly ripe and juicy.
