Number Of Ingredients 12

1 stick unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
3 egg yolks
1 1/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
8 pitted and quartered apricots
1 1/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 stick unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 10-inch round cake pan, 2-inches deep and line the bottom with a disk of parchment or wax paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and soft. Add the egg and continue beating until light. Add the yolks one at a time, beating well between each addition. Beat in the vanilla. Sift together the flour and baking powder and stir into the batter. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.
  • Arrange the apricots skin side down on the batter in concentric rows, overlapping slightly, leaving a margin of about 1-inch around the edge. Don't be concerned if the apricots mounds slightly in the center of the cake, the top will even out as the cake bakes.
  • For the crumbs, mix the flour, sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Melt the butter and stir it in evenly. Rub the mixture to coarse crumbs by hand. Scatter the crumbs over the apricot and the batter at the edges as evenly as possible. Bake the cake 1 hour until a knife point inserted in the center emerges clean. Cool the cake in the pan for about 15 minutes and invert a plate on it. Invert onto the plate and lift off the pan. Peel off the paper and invert a rack on the cake. Invert onto the rack and cool.
  • Variations: Substitute 8 pitted and quartered plums or 3 cups fresh cut pineapple.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
  • Use room temperature butter: This will make it easier to cream together with the sugar and will result in a lighter, fluffier cake.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use fresh apricots: Fresh apricots will give your cake the best flavor. If you can't find fresh apricots, you can use frozen or canned apricots, but be sure to drain them well before using.
  • Don't overcook the crumble topping: The crumble topping should be golden brown and crispy, but not overcooked. Watch it closely so that it doesn't burn.
  • Let the cake cool completely before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the cake to set properly.

This macadamia apricot crumble cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet apricots, crunchy macadamias, and a buttery crumble topping is sure to please everyone.
