How to Make French Style Apricot Tart

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
  2. Gently lay a 9-inch pre-made pie crust into a pie plate. Prick the bottom with a fork to prevent air bubbles.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1/2 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Stir in 1/2 cup ground almonds, 1/4 cup shredded coconut, and 1/2 cup heavy cream until well combined.
  5. Carefully pour the almond-coconut cream mixture into the prepared pie crust.
  6. Arrange approximately 1 1/2 cups fresh apricot halves, cut-side down, over the cream filling.
  7. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set.
  8. Let the tart cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
  9. **Variations:** Feel free to substitute apricots with peaches, pears, or a combination of your favorite fruits.
  10. You can also experiment with the filling by substituting the ground almonds with shredded coconut, or vice-versa, to create your own unique flavor profile.
