Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup golden brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup margarine
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/4 cup brandy
  • 3 teaspoons vanilla
  • 2 apricots (for filling)
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons sugar (for filling)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Crust:

    • In a food processor, blend together the all-purpose flour, golden brown sugar, and salt for about 5 seconds.
    • Add the margarine, cutting it in using on/off turns until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
    • Mix in the vanilla and add enough water to form moist clumps.
    • Briefly knead the dough on a work surface to combine and flatten it into a disk.
    • Cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill until firm โ€“ at least two hours or for a quick 1/2 hour in the freezer.
  2. Preheat and Roll:

    • Preheat your oven to 375ยฐF (190ยฐC).
    • Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to a 13-inch round.
    • Transfer the rolled-out dough to an 11-inch diameter tart pan with a removable bottom.
    • Gently press the dough into the pan, trimming any excess dough. Freeze the crust for 30 minutes.
  3. Bake the Crust:

    • Place the tart pan on a baking sheet and bake until the crust turns light golden, which should take about 25 minutes.
    • If you notice the crust bubbling, simply prick it with a toothpick.
    • Allow the crust to cool completely.
  4. Prepare the Filling:

    • In a food processor, combine cream, 1/4 cup sugar, flour, brandy, egg yolk, and vanilla. Blend until the mixture becomes smooth.
  5. Assemble and Bake:

    • Arrange the apricot pieces, cut side down, in the cooled crust.
    • Pour the prepared custard over the arranged apricots.
    • Sprinkle the remaining 3 tablespoons of sugar over the top.
    • Place the tart on a baking sheet and bake until the apricots are tender, and the filling is puffed and set โ€“ this can take anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes. Test with a toothpick.
    • Allow the tart to cool to room temperature.
  6. Serve and Enjoy:

    • Once cooled, brush the bottom of the tart pan to free the tart.
    • Serve this delightful Apricot Custard Tart to your guests, appreciating the harmonious blend of flavors and the golden perfection of the crust.

This recipe promises not just a dessert, but a culinary experience that tantalizes the taste buds with every bite.
