Method
- Preheat oven 200C.

(Works well in my 25 cm 1/2" tin with a little bit left for half a dozen jam tarts.) Allow to cool. - Spread raspberry jam over base. Arrange about 2/3 of raspberries over base.
- Reduce oven heat to 180C.
- Make filling - Cream the butter and sugar together then mix in flour, almonds, eggs and almond essence. Beat well.
- Spread frangipane mixture over raspberries on base.
- Arrange the rest of raspberries over the frangipane and press in lightly.
- Bake for about 30 to 35 minutes until risen, golden and set.
- Mix apricot jam with a little boiling water and brush over tart.
