Delight in the sweet simplicity of this Apricot Jam Tart with Fresh Berries, a delightful dessert that showcases the harmonious balance of buttery pastry and vibrant fruit flavors.

For an extra indulgence, serve it with a scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream, which melts into the warm tart, creating a delightful contrast of temperatures and textures.
