Apple Almond Tart

Cook Time: 30 minutes
Prep Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

1 sheet frozen pie crust
1/2 cup almond paste (5 ounces)
1 large egg
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
5 cups apples, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons apricot preserves, heated

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425 F. Coat a baking sheet with non-stick spray. Press dough out on to rectangle on baking sheet. Prick dough all over with fork tines to prevent bubbling. Bake until it begins to brown, about 10 minutes; remove from oven. Meanwhile, in food processor, combine almond paste, egg and sugar. Process until smooth, fold in 2 cups apples. Spread mixture over dough. Layer top with remaining sliced apples. Brush with apricot preserves; broil on high until apples begin to wilt, about 1 minute. Cut into squares and serve.
