I harvested the apricots from our garden. I thought about making tarts, but I left out the crust and increased the amount of almond cream powder to make a cake. It was moist and delicious.
If you don't have fresh apricots of course you can used canned apricots. Be sure to thoroughly drain them.

Just mix everything together. For apricots and peaches if you insert the knife along the depression and cut it's easy to remove the seed. Recipe by Pitarou
