Barefoot Contessa French Apple Tart Recipe

Barefoot Contessa French Apple Tart Recipe

This tart features store-bought puff pastry as the base, topped with thinly sliced apples arranged in a beautiful spiral or layered pattern. It’s baked until golden and crisp, then brushed with apricot jam for shine and sweetness. No need for pie crusts or custards—this is a light, flaky dessert that lets the apples shine.
