Method

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan). Grease a 25 cm baking dish with the butter and lay the apricots in it, cut side down.

  2. 2

    Whisk the eggs and sugar for 2 minutes until pale and a little thick.

  3. 3

    Whisk in the flour until smooth, then the milk, cream and vanilla. The batter should be thin like single cream.

  4. 4

    Pour the batter slowly over the apricots.

  5. 5

    Bake for 40 minutes, until puffed, golden and just set in the middle.

  6. 6

    Cool for 10 minutes. It will sink a little, which is right. Dust with icing sugar and serve warm.
