Apricot Tart
1.Preheat oven to 240°C (220°C fan-forced). Line a large baking tray with baking paper.
2.Halve pastry and roll out each piece to a 12 x 34cm oblong. Place on prepared tray. Lightly score a 1cm border along long edges. Use a fork to prick pastry inside borders and along short edges.
3.Sprinkle almond meal and half of sugar over pastry, leaving border free. Top with apricots, cut side down, and sprinkle with remaining sugar.
4.Combine apricot jam with 1 tablespoon water in a small saucepan on low heat. Stir until smooth. Brush apricots with half of jam.
5.Bake for 30 minutes, until pastry is puffed and golden and apricots are beginning to brown. Glaze apricots and pastry edges with remaining apricot jam. Place under a preheated grill for 1-2 minutes, until caramelised. Serve warm.
