This was another of her weekend baking experiments that worked out pretty nicely. It's been already a while ago at the time of apricot season.

The original recipe included classic flour and crushed almonds that she substituted with the almond flour and a bit of spelt flour. Preheat the over for 200 C, mix all the corpus ingredients together which creates a kind of a paste mixture and place it onto a baking paper in a form. Place the apricot halves onto the corpus, fill them with whole almonds, brush them with melted butter and sprinkle with the brown sugar. Bake in the oven for about 40 minutes until the apricots are nicely caramelized and the corpus has golden color and crunchy rounds. Serve with whipped cream if you wish.

Bon Appetit!
