ingredients

shortcrust


  • 250 g flour
  • 2 slightly heaped teaspoon baking powder
  • 100 g of sugar
  • 1 1/2 p. Vanilla sugar
  • 1-2 egg yolk, I took 2 because the eggs were small.
  • 150 g butter

Mandel cast

  • 150 ml sweet cream
  • 1 whole egg
  • 1 pinch of cinnamon, amount to taste
  • 80-90 g of sugar

preparation

  1. From the ingredients for the dough, make a shortcrust pastry, wrap in cling film and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  2. Then put in a buttered springform pan, press right and pull up an edge for the cast.
  3. Whisk all the ingredients for the casting with the hand mixer.
  4. Sprinkle the dough with some breadcrumbs, pan, and what is too much to fall out. Serves to keep the soil from getting soggy.
  5. The cast is then added to the dough and spread in half and pitted apricots with the hole up on the dough and lightly press.
  6. Sprinkle with shaved almonds and bake.

Upper / lower heat 180 degrees or circulating air 160 degrees approx. 45 minutes, depending on the oven also a little longer.

If you like, you can still use icing sugar after cooling.

Good Appetite.
