Apricot pie is a delicious summer pastry that will create a cozy atmosphere in a circle of loved ones over a cup of tea.

Dry yeast should be mixed with half granulated sugar and then poured over with warm milk.

Wait 5 minutes for the yeast to dissolve. Then you need to add an incomplete glass of sifted flour and mix thoroughly so that there are no lumps left. it dough - a nutrient medium for yeast... It must be left in a warm place for 10-15 minutes for the fermentation process to begin. Soon, bubbles will appear on the surface of the dough, and it itself will become thicker. This means that the yeast is of good quality and has already been activated.

In a large container, combine 2 eggs and the remaining granulated sugar. This recipe uses only 75 g of sugar. The cake is moderately sweet. If desired, the amount of sugar can be increased, but not more than 50 g.

Beat the eggs and sugar until the grains are completely dissolved. Then the dough should be transferred to the resulting eggnog.

The butter must be melted in the microwave or in a water bath. Pour the dough with warm oil, and then add the vegetable oil.

Mixing everything well, add the sifted flour.

You need to knead a soft dough. It should turn out to be quite greasy, that is, it will not stick to your hands.

For proofing, cover the dough with a towel and place in a warm place for 2 hours. During this time, it will have to be kneaded twice. When the dough rises for the third time, you can continue cooking.

At this point, you need to prepare the fruit. Apricots should be washed, dried, cut into halves and pitted. For the pie, it is better to choose ripe, but strong fruits.

A good yeast dough must have a porous structure. It needs to be divided into two unequal parts, separating one fourth for decoration, since we have an open pie recipe.

Most of the dough should be rolled out into a 5 mm thick layer. Having screwed it onto a rolling pin, you need to transfer the dough into a mold. There is a lot of oil in the dough, so you do not need to add flour to roll out, and the mold does not need to be lubricated with anything... Form low sides.

You can sprinkle it with starch to prevent the fruit juice from getting soaked. On top, lay the halves of the apricots with the skin up.

The remaining dough must be rolled out and cut into strips. Make oblique cuts on both sides of each strip to form a "spikelet".

Decorate by laying out the stripes on top in the form of a slanting cell. There should be enough gaps between the strips to bake the apricots.

You need to bake in the oven at 180 degrees for 30 minutes. Then it should be greased with egg yolk and baked for another 5-7 minutes until golden brown.

Cover the finished aromatic pastry with a towel and leave it in the form until it cools completely.

The recipe with a photo is suitable for beginners who have never baked anything themselves, everything is so simple and straightforward. Apricots are guaranteed not to ferment during baking, they will not go away with water, but on the contrary, they will dry out a little, the dough will surely rise well and bake evenly, the main thing is not to skimp on a high-quality baking powder. You need a little fruit for the pie - only 8 pieces. There is no need to look for particularly ripe or large specimens on the market. A small, unsightly apricot is perfect for this cake.

How to make apricot pie

The cooking process is so simple that there isn't much to write about here. First, put the butter out of the refrigerator so that it warms up at room temperature and becomes soft - you then easily mix it with sugar. How exactly to stir the dough - decide for yourself. If you take a mixer, the structure of the pie will turn out to be more tender, if you stir with a fork, as I did, the dough will turn out to be more granular. I personally wanted the second option.

When you mix the butter and sugar, add the eggs to the dough. Mix again. Use a mixer to beat at high speed until a mushy mass is formed.

Next, add flour and baking powder. It is better to mix them separately, especially if you are baking for the first time, then the dough will rise evenly when baking. You can sift the flour for extra tenderness of the dough. I just poured it. I added a little.

And mixed it all over again. The mixer is not used in this case. Mix simply with a spoon or spatula.

This concludes the work with the test. Agree, everything is simple.

Now let's get to the apricots. They need to be washed, be sure to dry - you can blot with a towel. And then cut in half with a knife, removing the bones.

We take the form. You can detachable, you can ordinary. If it is non-stick coated, you do not need to lubricate. If not, lubricate with oil. You can put a sheet of parchment. Lay out and level the dough. The layer will be small. Don't worry, the cake will rise a lot in the oven.

Put apricots on top in a circle. They will shrink slightly when baking, so you can lay them side by side. There is no need to press.

Just put the pie in the oven. The baking temperature is low - 160-170 degrees. The baking time is 45-50 minutes. Pierce the dough with a toothpick. Dry? The cake is ready.

Sprinkle with powder and serve.

Bon Appetit!
