Simple apricot pie
Description
The baking is simple and quick. This easy apricot pie is probably the best addition to tea in summer, when the fruits are at their most nutritious and delicious. The pie turns out tender and moist thanks to the apricots, which release their juice while baking. Besides apricots, you can use peaches, nectarines, or plums—each will make a very tasty pie. I also recommend trying this pie with added cinnamon for a wonderful aroma. Serve it cooled or slightly warm.
