Apricot tart

14 steps
Prep:1h 15minCook:30min
So I love apricots, and I'm assuming you do too! Let me tell you the story of how this recipe came to be. Bring it back to May... I've just bought some delicious apricots, among other things. I walk home from the store... open the bag.... and they has bagged my apricots with apples. The apricots were all bruised and would go bad faster than I could eat them!! What could I do?? I brought out Trudy, my trusty food processor, and blended them, putting them in the fridge for later. I looked up recipes that involved apricots, and came up empty handed. Until I found a recipe for an apricot lemon tart, and the lightbulb went off in my head. I rushed to Amazon, and purchased a tart pan right away! Then I went to the kitchen to experiment. Thus, the Apricot Tart was born.
