Apricot Jam Crostata
Ingredienti:

250g all-purpose flour

125g cold unsalted butter, cubed
-
100g sugar

1 egg
-
1 tsp vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

250g apricot jam (or fresh apricots for extra texture)
Preparazione:
-
In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the cold, cubed butter and rub it into the flour until it resembles breadcrumbs.
-
Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix to form a dough. Wrap the dough in cling film and chill for 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Roll out the dough into a 9-inch circle and place it into a tart tin. Trim any excess dough.

Spread apricot jam over the base, adding sliced fresh apricots if desired.

Create a lattice pattern with the remaining dough.

Bake for 35-40 minutes until golden and the jam is bubbling. Allow to cool before serving.
