Instructions
  1. Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper, lightly dust it with flour, and roll out the dough to 1/8-inch-thick 14-inch round circle. The circle doesn’t need to be perfect. Slide the parchment and dough onto a large baking sheet and chill for 30 minutes.
  2. Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees and place rack on lower third shelf of the oven.
  3. Remove the dough from the fridge and carefully remove the top parchment paper. Arrange the apple slices in concentric circles starting from the outside, leave a 1 ½ inch border, overlap the apples slightly. Fold the edge of the dough over the apples, use the parchment as aid. Sprinkle apples with 3 tablespoons of sugar, drizzle the lemon juice over them, and dot with the butter. Brush the crust with milk and evenly sprinkle it with raw sugar.
  4. Bake the tart for 45-50 minutes or until the crust is golden and apples are tender. Remove from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes.
  5. While the tart cools, add the apricot preserve to a medium saucepan and heat the preserve over medium low heat. Brush the preserve lightly over the apples.
  6. Serve and enjoy
