Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a 2 litre saucepan over medium-high heat, simmer applesauce, honey, brandy if desired, vanilla and lemon rind until quite thick, about 10 to 15 minutes. Pour mixture into prepared crust. Arrange apples in concentric circles on top of sauce.
In a 1 litre saucepan over medium-high heat, melt apricot jam, then press through a sieve. Use a pastry brush to glaze apples with jam.
