Glazes for Fruit Pies, Tarts, and Coffee Cakes (Apricot, Peach, is one of my favorite ways to add that beautiful, glossy finish to all my favorite baked treats. These simple glazes come together so quickly, and they make everything look just as pretty as it tastes.
What I love most about these glazes is how the raspberries and sugar combine to create that gorgeous jewel-like shine that catches the light so beautifully. The syrups add just the right amount of body and sweetness, and since you’re simply combining everything in one saucepan, there’s no fussy technique required.
I’ve been using these glazes for years at family gatherings, and folks always ask me what my secret is to making my baked goods look so professional. There’s something special about brushing a warm glaze over a fruit tart fresh from the oven and watching your loved ones’ faces light up.
