Serves:
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
- 2-3 tbsp ice water
- 6 fresh apricots, pitted and sliced
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/4 tsp almond extract
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
In a food processor, combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, pulsing just until the dough comes together.
-
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and shape it into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
-
In a bowl, toss the apricot slices with granulated sugar, cornstarch, and almond extract until well coated.
-
Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch tart pan. Press the dough into the pan, trimming any excess.
-
Arrange the coated apricot slices evenly over the tart shell.
-
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the apricots are tender.
-
Allow the tart to cool before serving.
