Recipe for Class 86 – Apricot & Almond Tart
Ingredients
Pastry:
225g
100g
100g
1
plain flour
icing sugar
butter, cubed
egg
Filling:
275g almond paste, home made or shop bought, coarsely grated or chopped
2x400g tins of halved apricots in natural juice
To Serve:
icing sugar
Method
o
Pre-heat the oven to 200 C/ Gas Mark 5 and place a flat baking tray in the oven to preheat.
Make the pastry in a processor or by the rubbing-in method. Gather together on a floured
table. Wrap in cling film and leave in the fridge for about 15 minutes.
Take off one-third of the chilled pastry for the top. Roll out the rest to make a circle large
enough to line the base and sides of a 23cm fluted flan tin. Spread the grated almond
paste over the pastry lined base of the flan. Drain the apricots thoroughly, pat dry with
kitchen paper and arrange on the base of the flan tin, cut side down. Roll out the
remaining pastry for the lid. Damp the edge of the pastry base in the tin. Lift the pastry
over the top of the fruit, and press the two layers of pastry together around the edge of
the tin.
Transfer to the oven to bake on the heated baking sheet for 30-35 minutes until a good
golden colour.
Sieve some icing sugar over before serving.
