Apricot Pie

80 minutes
Apricot pie is a delicate treat that captivates with its aroma and vibrant fruity flavor. Its roots trace back to European baking traditions where fruits often take center stage in desserts. In this pie, apricots baked in airy dough reveal their sweetness and slight tartness, creating a perfect balance of taste. Delicate butter and vanilla give the dough softness and sophistication, while caramelized sugar on the surface adds a delicious crispy crust. This pie is perfect for cozy family tea times or celebrations, filling the home with warmth and the sweet aroma of fresh baking. Serve it slightly warm, dusted with powdered sugar to highlight its rich flavor.
