Time 1h

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces, more for greasing pan
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 lb dried apricot
2 eggs
1 cup light brown sugar
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8-inch square baking pan (not necessary with nonstick pan).
  • Combine butter, 1 cup flour and the granulated sugar in a food processor. Pulse until ingredients are pebbly and crumbly; mixture will be quite dry. Press into pan, and bake for 15 minutes or until shell is evenly cooked.
  • If fruit is very dry, stew it in water to cover in a small saucepan until soft, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain very well, then chop. Combine in a bowl with eggs, brown sugar, remaining flour and salt.
  • Remove pan from oven, and pour fruit batter over crust. Bake until lightly browned and firm on edges but still a little soft in middle, about 30 minutes.
  • Cool, then cut into squares and serve. Store, covered and refrigerated, for up to 2 days.

I've tried many apricot square recipes, but this one is by far the best. The crust is flaky and the filling is perfectly tart and sweet.

I followed the recipe exactly and my apricot squares turned out great! The only thing I would change is to use a little less sugar in the filling.
