I had some dried apricots that I wanted to use, so I found this on the web. It is beyond delicious, and very easy! Slightly tangy and quite sweet! I think it would be fantastic a la mode with vanilla bean ice cream. :-)

Time 1h30m

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 6

18 ounces dried apricots
1 3/4 cups water
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon orange liqueur
1 3/4 cups white sugar
1 pastry for a double-crust 9-inch pie

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Slice the dried apricots in half and rinse them with water.
  • Place them in a sauce pan with the water, bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Combine the cornstarch with the orange liqueur and about 1 tablespoon of the apricots' cooking liquid.
  • Mix until smooth then stir into the cooked apricots.
  • Add the white sugar and combine.
  • Pour mixture into the unbaked pie shell and seal with the top crust.
  • Brush milk over top crust for color, if desired.
  • Bake at 400°F for about 1 hour.
  • **PLEASE NOTE: If your dried apricots are sweet, you may want to cut the amount of sugar from the 1 3/4 cups called for in the recipe to about 2/3 to 3/4 cup of sugar (or to your taste) to prevent the pie from being overly sweet. The dried apricots I use are quite tart/sour, so the 1 3/4 cups of sugar does not produce an overly sweet pie.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, plump apricots for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have dried apricots, you can use fresh apricots instead. Just reduce the sugar in the filling by 1/4 cup.
  • Be sure to drain the apricots well before adding them to the filling. Otherwise, the pie will be too juicy.
  • For a crispier crust, brush the top with milk before baking.
  • Let the pie cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help the filling to set.

Conclusion:

Apricot pie is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and always a hit with family and friends. With its sweet and tangy filling and flaky crust, apricot pie is a delicious way to enjoy this summer fruit.
