Categories Dessert
Number Of Ingredients 1
Steps:
- 1 You will need a 28cm (11in) round, loose-bottomed fluted tart tin, 3-4cm (1¼-1½in) deep. Preheat the oven to 190°C/170°C fan/ Gas 5, and slip a heavy baking sheet inside to heat up. 2 First make the pastry, either by mixing the flour and butter in a food processor or by hand - rubbing the flour and butter together with your fingertips, until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add the sugar and mix in briefly, then add the egg and ½-1 tablespoon of water. Mix until the dough just holds together. 3 Roll the pastry out on a floured surface as thinly as possible, 1-2mm (1/16in) thick, and use to line the tin, making a small lip around the top. Prick the base of the pastry all over with a fork. 4 Next make the frangipane filling. Place the butter and sugar in the food processor (no need to wash this out first) and whizz until creamy, blend in the eggs, then mix in the ground almonds and almond extract. Alternatively, beat together with a wooden spoon if making by hand. 5 Arrange the apricot slices over the base of the pastry and spoon the frangipane mixture on top, spreading it evenly to cover the apricots. 6 Sit the tart tin on the hot baking sheet, and bake in the oven for 45-50 minutes until the pastry is crisp and the tart is golden brown. 7 To finish, make a glacé icing by mixing together the icing sugar and apricot juice, adding enough juice to give a pouring consistency and for the icing to hold its shape. Using a spoon, zigzag the icing over the tart and leave to set. 8 Remove the tart from the tin and transfer to a serving plate. Serve warm or cold. TIPS: Sprinkling extra ground almonds on the cooked pastry base before adding the apricots helps to absorb extra moisture. The apricots need to be as dry as possible to prevent the juice soaking into the pastry. Dry each one individually with kitchen paper. An easy way of removing the tart from the tin is to stand the tart tin on one or two tins or jars; the ring around the tart can then be lowered to your work surface, leaving the tart on the base of the tin. Slide the tart off the base on to a serving plate.

Yield Serves 8
Number Of Ingredients 17
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Butter the bottom and sides of a 9-inch (23cm) fluted tart pan with removable bottom. Set aside.
- Make the pastry:
- In a large bowl, combine the melted butter and the sugar, and using a wooden spoon, stir to blend. Add the remaining ingredients and stir to form a soft, cookie-like dough. Transfer the dough to the center of the buttered pan. Using the tips of your fingers, evenly press the pastry along the bottom and up the sides of the pan. The pastry will be quite thin.
- Place the pan in the center of the oven and bake unitl the dough is slightly puffy and set, 12 to 15 minutes. Sprinkle the ground almonds over the bottom of the crust. (This will prevent the crust from becoming soggy.)
- Meanwhile make the filling:
- In a medium-size bowl, combine the crème fraîche, egg, extracts and honey and whisk to blend. Whisk in the flour.
- Pour the filling evenly over the pastry. Starting just inside the edge of the pan, neatly overlap the halved apricots, cut side up, at an angle. Arrange in two or three concentric circles, working toward the center. Fill in the center with the remaining apricots.
- Place the tart pan on a baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the center of the oven and bake until the filling is firm and the pastry is a deep golden brown, 55 to 60 minutes. The apricots will shrivel slightly. Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with confectioners' sugar. Place the tart on a rack to cool. Sprinkle again with confectioners' sugar just before serving.

Steps:
- Let the filo come to room temperature for about 10 mins before use. Put a baking tray into the oven and heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6.
- Brush each large sheet of filo with melted butter, layer on top of each other, then fold in half so you have a smaller rectangle 6 layers thick. If using small sheets just stack on top of each other. Fold in the edges of the pastry base to make a 2cm border, then spread the apricot conserve inside the border. Carefully slide the pastry base on to the hot baking tray and bake for 5 mins.
- Remove from oven, arrange apricots over the tart and brush with any leftover melted butter. Bake for another 10 mins, then scatter on raspberries and sprinkle with sugar. Bake for a final 10 mins until the pastry is golden brown and crisp.
