Equipment

  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper
  • cooling rack

Ingredients

  • 1 pre-rolled pie crust
  • 1 pint jarred apricots (or 1 lb fresh fruit)
  • 3 Tbsp. sugar, use ¼ cup if using fresh fruit
  • 1 Tbsp. flour
  • ½ tsp. ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp. vanilla extract
  • Tbsp. butter, cubed
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • coarse sugar

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Line an edged baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Unroll the pie crust onto the parchment paper.
  • If using jarred apricots, pour into a collander and drain off the syrup.
  • Combine flour, sugar, and cinammon in a small bowl.
  • Slice the apricots into half inch slices (cut each jarred apricot half in two) and add to a medium sized bowl.
  • Cover the apricots the the dry mixture and toss to coat the fruit.
  • Add the vanilla to the apricots and blend.
  • Arrange the apricots in around the center of the pie crust, leaving about 2 inches around the outside edge.
  • Fold the outside of the crust over in sections (about 6-8) to cover the edges of the fruit and pinch together any cracks.
  • Brush the exposed top of the crust with the beaten egg wash and sprinkle the crust with coarse sugar.
  • Sprinkle small pieces of butter on the top of the fruit.
  • Place the baking sheet in the oven for 25-30 minutes until the crust is golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven and let stand for 15 minutes to cool.
