I have to be honest: this is the first sweet I prepare with apricots a part of the classical Italian fresh fruits pastry. In my family they’re not big lovers of cooked fruit, but this time I tried to let them try something different from their usual gastronomic routine. The results were great!
Time of cooking
30 minutes
Servings
About 18 little cakes
What did I use
A wooden spoon, a cutting board, a large bowl, a knife, silicon stamps for muffins, a baking tray, a small colander, a whisk
Ingredients
Apricots about 350 gr + for decorating
Minced thyme
Butter 105 gr
Sugar 130 gr
Eggs 3
Greek yogurt vanilla flavor 3 spoons
Flour 225 gr
Baking powder 16 gr
How did I do
I reheated the oven at 180 °C
I mixed the soften butter with sugar.
I added the egg one a time and I beat with the whisk.
I added flour and baking powder, then the yogurt mixed with thyme.
I cut the apricots in thin slices and added them to the dough.
I washed the silicon moulds and filled them with the dough thinking about the growing during the cooking.
I cooked for about 25 minutes or until they were brownish.
Before serving them cold, I decorated with the remaining apricots and some icing sugar.
Buon appetito!
