Ingredients
- 1 sheet prepared flaky pastry, thawed
- 10 apricots, halved and stoned
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons river honey
- 20g butter
Method
-
Preheat the oven to 180ºC.
-
Place the sheet of pastry on a greased oven tray, trim off the corners and roll out like a pizza, then crimp the edges a little so that the outer rim of the pastry is slightly raised.
-
Place the apricot halves in slightly overlapping layers, starting from the edges, until they are all used. Bake for 15 minutes.
-
While the galette is cooking, combine the honey, sugar and butter in a saucepan and heat until all is dissolved. When the galette has been in the oven for 15 minutes, pull out the tray and brush over the honey glaze.
-
Return to the oven and cook until the fruit takes on a nice glaze and the pastry is crisp, 30–40 minutes. Brush over any remaining honey glaze you may have left.
-
Serve generous warm slices with softly whipped cream.
Notes
It works well served cold as a picnic dish.
