A classic apple tart made by arranging apple slices in a tart shell and baking until tender, then brushing the surface with apricot glaze after baking.

unbaked tart shell (10 in (25 cm))

Instructions
1
Prepare the apples
Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples; you should end up with about 600 g of apple slices.
2
Arrange the filling
Spread the apple slices in the tart shell. Reserve the best, most even slices for the top, arranging them in an overlapping concentric pattern (like fish scales).
3
Sprinkle with sugar
Sprinkle the sugar evenly over the apples.
4
Bake
Bake in a 200°C (400°F) oven for about 45 minutes, until the crust is browned and the apples are tender.

Glaze
Once cooled, brush with the apricot glaze.
