It’s summer, it’s hot and sunny, it’s time for apricot cake. Yeah, I rhyme, what you gonna do? Well, let’s continue. As I love to share my favorite recipes with you, I thought you might like this apricot tart, which is hard to miss.
No need to have done Top Chef, and you’ll see, she’s too good.
Apricot pie ingredients
To make this recipe you will need:
- A shortcrust pastry (industrial or homemade, it’s even better and it’s very simple, remind me to give you the recipe)
- about 12 very ripe apricots
- 1 egg
- 100 g of butter
- 100 g of fresh cream
- 80 g of sugar
- 80 g ground almonds (or hazelnuts, according to taste)
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
The steps of the too good apricot cake recipe
First things first: preheat the oven to 210°C. Roll out the dough on a cake tin and put everything in the fridge while waiting. In a mixing bowl, mix all the ingredients together, except the apricots. You should get a smooth cream. You can also do it by hand, but frankly you may have some pain in your wrist and the blender will make it easier for you.
Then wash the apricots, open them in half and remove the core. Take your dough out of the fridge, spread the cream on the bottom and arrange the apricots on top. For the beauty of the gesture, you can sprinkle a teaspoon of sugar on top.
Hop, in the oven for 25 minutes! Let it cool before throwing yourself on it, it’s better.
The unexpected little twist? You can slide some crumbled thyme over the apricots before baking. The effect is pretty crazy, taste-wise.
