Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, granulated sugar, and salt.
Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or fork to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add the lightly beaten egg to the flour and butter mixture. Mix until the dough holds together.
Press the dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
Bake the crust for 10-12 minutes, or until light golden. Remove from oven and let it cool completely.
In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled crust.
Arrange the sliced figs over the cream cheese filling in an overlapping pattern.
In a small saucepan, combine the apricot jam and water. Heat over medium heat until the jam is melted and smooth.
Brush the warm apricot glaze over the figs to give them a glossy finish.
Chill the fig tart in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
Serve chilled and enjoy your homemade gluten-free fig tart!
