Ingredients:

- 3 tbsp Granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup Apricot jam (for glaze)
Instructions:
| Step | Instructions |
|---|---|
| 1. | Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). |
| 2. | Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. Toss them with lemon juice to prevent browning. |
| 3. | On a floured surface, roll out your favorite tart pastry to a 1/8-inch thick rectangle. This should fit a standard baking sheet. Carefully transfer the pastry to the baking sheet. |
| 4. | Arrange the apple slices on the pastry, overlapping them in three long rows. Leave about a 1-inch border of pastry all around the apples. The slices should be close enough to almost stand upright. |
| 5. | Fold the 1-inch border of pastry up and slightly over the apples, creating a rustic edge. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar evenly over the apples and pastry edge. |
| 6. | Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the crust is golden brown. |
| 7. | Remove the tart from the oven and sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar over the top. This will add a lovely sweetness and crunch. |
| 8. | In a small bowl, melt the apricot jam in the microwave until it’s smooth and runny. Brush this glaze over the warm tart for a beautiful shine and added flavor. |
| 9. | Allow the tart to cool slightly before serving. This tart is delicious warm, served with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy! |
