Canned apricots make this golden, buttery tart a wonderful option any time of year. I brush them with preserves and brandy, then sprinkle on almonds for a bit of crunch. -Johnna Johnson, Scottsdale, Arizona

The tart was delicious, but the crust was a bit too dry. I would definitely make this again, but I would use a different crust recipe.

This tart was a bit too tart for my taste, but the crust was amazing. I would definitely make this again, but I would add some more sugar to the filling.

This tart was a bit too sweet for my taste, but the crust was amazing. I would definitely make this again, but I would reduce the amount of sugar in the filling.
