Preparation procedure

  • Preparing the baking sheet Grease a 30 × 40 cm baking sheet with butter or oil and lightly dust with flour. Pour the batter evenly onto the sheet and smooth the surface.
  • Layering the apricots Halve the apricots and arrange them on the batter, stones facing down, in rows or evenly across the surface.
  • Preparing and sprinkling the streusel In a bowl, rub together the flour, sugar and butter with your hands until a crumbly mixture forms. Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the apricots and the edges of the batter.
  • Baking Preheat the oven to 180 °C (fan / convection 160 °C). Place the cake in the oven and bake for 30–40 minutes, until the streusel turns golden and the batter is cooked through.
