1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
8 -10 fresh apricots

  • Pit and slice apricots. Arrange apricot slices over the top of each tart.
  • To make glaze, mix apricot jam with a little water, brush over tops of fruit.
  • Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until lightly browned.

This tart is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less sugar in the frangipane filling.

I'm not a fan of frangipane, but I really enjoyed this tart. The apricots and glaze were the perfect balance to the richness of the filling.

This recipe is a keeper! The tart was absolutely perfect. The crust was flaky and buttery, the frangipane filling was creamy and almondy, and the apricots were sweet and tart. I will definitely be making this tart again.

The tart was delicious, but I found the frangipane filling to be a bit too sweet for my taste. Next time, I will use less sugar.
