Fruit Tart Recipe

Make the Tart Crust

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Mix well.

Add the softened butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

In a small bowl, whisk the egg yolk and cold water together. Gradually add to the flour mixture, mixing until it forms a dough.

Press the dough into a tart pan evenly across the bottom and up the sides. Prick the bottom with a fork to prevent bubbling.

Chill the crust in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the crust for 20-25 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove and let cool completely.

Prepare the Cream Filling

In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.

Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and continue to beat until well combined.

In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.

Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.

Spread the cream filling evenly over the cooled tart crust.

Add the Toppings

Arrange the assorted seasonal fruits on top of the cream filling in a decorative pattern.

In a small saucepan, heat the apricot glaze over low heat until melted, then brush it over the fruits for a shiny finish.

Refrigerate the tart for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the filling to set.

Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your delicious fruit tart!
