Bursting with peaches, and topped with sweet, velvety meringue, this tart really is one of a kind. It brings together the sweetness of the meringue and the sourness of apricots, and it plays with those flavors in high fashion. Plus, the crust is homemade, so you also get to experiment a bit with the dish.
