- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar

- 2 tbsp apricot jam, warmed (optional, for glaze)

Notes
- You can substitute frozen raspberries, but thaw and drain well before using.
- For a richer almond flavor, toast almond flour lightly before mixing into the filling.
- The tart can be made a day ahead and stored in the refrigerator.
