Put the apples along with the water in a saucepan and cook until the apples are mushy and the liquid is absorbed. Press through a sieve and cool.
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Line a 10" tart pan with the dough and spread the apple puree over the bottom.
Peel, core and thinly slice the pears. Arrange them in a decorative pattern over the apple mixture.
Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and cool.
Heat the apricot jam until bubbly and spoon over the pears. Sprinkle with almonds.
To Serve: Remove sides of the pan and cut the tart into wedges.
