Apricot cake with marzipan
The highlight of the apricot season: an apricot cake from the tray refined with marzipan that can be whizzed up in no time.
How to make it:
Step 1:
Preheat oven to 180 degrees hot air. Stir marzipan, powdered sugar and yolks until smooth.
Step 2:
Stir room-warm butter into the yolk mixture.
Step 3:
Beat 4 egg whites with granulated sugar until stiff. Stir flour, lemon zest, baking powder and milk into the yolk mixture. Fold in the beaten egg whites.
Step 4:
Spread the mixture on a baking tray and cover with halved apricots. The mixture is enough for about 2/3 of a baking tray.
Bake for 30 - 40 minutes. After 20 minutes, turn down to 160 degrees.
