Steps:
- Make tart shell:
- Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 375°F.
- Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin into a 14-inch round and fit into bottom and side of tart pan, then trim flush with top of rim. Chill until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Lightly prick bottom of shell all over with a fork, then line with foil and fill with weights. Bake until pastry is pale golden along rim, and set underneath weights, 18 to 20 minutes. Carefully remove foil and weights and bake shell until bottom and side are golden, about 10 minutes more. Cool completely in pan on a rack, about 30 minutes. Leave oven on.
- Fill and bake tart:
- While shell cools, roast apricots in 1 layer, cut sides up, in a 13- by 9-inch baking dish 30 minutes, then set aside.
- Reduce oven temperature to 350°F.
- Pulse almonds with 2 tablespoons sugar and a pinch of salt in a food processor until finely ground.
- Beat together butter and 1/4 cup sugar with an electric mixer at medium-high speed until pale and fluffy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition, then beat in almond mixture, vanilla, and almond extract until just combined.
- Spread frangipane evenly in tart shell. Arrange apricots, cut sides up, on top of frangipane. (Frangipane will puff up around apricots when baked.) Bake until frangipane is golden brown and just firm to the touch, about 45 minutes.
- Preheat broiler.
- Sprinkle top of tart with remaining 2 teaspoons sugar and broil about 6 inches from heat until sugar is melted and top of tart is browned, 1 to 2 minutes (watch carefully). Cool to warm or room temperature in pan on a rack, at least 30 minutes.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 220C/gas 7/fan 200C. Unroll the pastry on to a lightly dampened baking sheet (this creates steam which helps puff up the pastry), then sprinkle over the ground almonds. Lay the apricot halves over the top, nestling them closely together, right up to the edge of the pastry.
- Dust with the icing sugar and bake for 20-25 minutes until the sugar starts to caramelise a little. If you like, drizzle with maple syrup and serve hot, warm or cold. If you really want to indulge, serve with a spoonful of clotted cream or a pouring of single cream.

APRICOT AND ALMOND TORTE
This is so easy and SO delicious. It's best made with fresh apricots (though in a pinch I have used tinned apricot halves, well-drained). I have lost count of how often I have made this, and of how many people have complemented me on it!

- For the brown bread ice cream, soak the bread in the milk for an hour. Beat the egg yolks in a large bowl until pale and fluffy. Add the sugar and beat well.
- For the apricot and almond tart, preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6. Lightly grease a large baking tray or line with baking paper.
- Put the flour in a large bowl and add the butter and lard. Rub together using your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add cold water, a tablespoon at a time, until the mixture comes together and forms a firm dough.
- Lightly flour a work surface and roll out the pastry into a circle about 1cm/½in thick and 22cm/8½in in diameter (you can cut around a large plate).
- Transfer to the baking tray, arrange the apricot filling in the centre of the circle. Bring the pastry edges up and over the fruit, pleating it round but leaving a gap in the centre to show the filling.
- For the banana ice cream, put all the ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth. This needs to be served immediately, so wait until the last minute to make it.
