Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a pie dish or an oven-safe skillet.
Wash and pit 1 1/2 cups of fresh apricots, then slice them in half. Arrange cut-side up in your greased dish.
In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup of milk, 3 large eggs, 2/3 cup of granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth and frothy.
Gradually sift in 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour and 1/4 teaspoon of salt, whisking gently until lump-free.
Pour the batter over the arranged apricots, ensuring they are submerged.
Sprinkle 1/4 cup of sliced almonds over the top of the batter.
Bake for 35-40 minutes until puffed and golden, and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Cool for about 10 minutes, then dust with powdered sugar before serving.
