Of course you can use apples from another state, but we grow some good apples here and it's always fun to use what's in your own backyard! This is a variation of a classic Pear Frangipane Tart, which is a favorite in my family. This tart screams for a scoop of vanilla ice cream (or almond ice cream, if you can find or make it). Toasting the almonds before grinding them will deepen their flavor.
