Extract .tgz files that only contain a pattern

Let's say I've got File.tgz that contains:-

Apple.txt
Banana.txt
Carrot.txt
AppleBanana.txt

Now, I would like to only extract files that contain the patter "Apple".

I've tried this

tar -xvf File.tgz 'tar -tf File.tgz | grep 'Apple''

but it does not work. Please help. Thanks.
