Nutritional values

This tart is surprisingly low in calories and fat yet brimming with summer flavor as well as a ton of vitamins and minerals, thanks to the raspberries and apricots. 

Don't have a tart pan? Bake the dough base in a springform pan instead. Your tart won't have a wavy edge, but will taste just as good.
