What do I love most about rustic pies? We have not no need for pie pan ! It's very easy to do, and I would even say that the less perfect it is, the better it is visually! Here I opted for a tart with ripe apricots, they are even more fragrant and tender when cooked ...

What ingredients for this apricot almond tart?

To make the rustic dough, we needsimple ingredients. You probably already have them in your cupboards: flour, ground almonds, softened unsalted butter, brown sugar and a pinch of salt.

For the apricot filling, you need the star ingredient: from ripe apricot ! You will also need ground almonds, brown sugar (or honey), a little water, an egg yolk and flaked almonds.

How to make an apricot pie?

We start by preparing the pie crust in advance since there is 1 hour of rest in the refrigerator. To do this, mix butter and sugar, then add the other ingredients, finishing with the flour. We form a ball before putting it in the refrigerator. Then we lower it on a floured work surface to make a large disc of dough (between two sheets of baking paper it's very easy).

For the garnish, we cut apricots in quarters (or smaller if you want a smoother result). They are poured into a container with the water and brown sugar (or honey). We coat them well.

Then, we sprinkle the paste with powdered almonds and brown sugar, leaving an empty space of about 4cm on the edge. Then place the apricots in the center. Then just gently fold the edge of the dough on the fruits, to "imprison" them. We brush the edges of the pastry with egg yolk then sprinkle with brown sugar.

All you have to do is put in the oven! Right out of the oven, you can add flaked roasted almonds to add a bit of crunch.
