250g butter
225g golden caster sugar
275g self raising flour
2tsp baking powder
finely grated zest of 1 orange and 2tbsp orange juice
75g ground almonds
5 medium eggs lightly beaten
225g chopped ready to eat apricots
Preheat the oven to gas mark 4. Grease a 20.5x33com tin and baseline.
Put all of the ingredients except the apricots into the bowl of a free standing mixer and mix until thouroughly combined.
Fold in the apricots. Spoon the mixture into the prepared tin, smooth the surface with a pallet knife. You might want to sprinkle the surface with some flaked almonds.
Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until risen and golden.
Cool in the tin and cut into squares.
Enjoy!
This is increadibly easy to make, and tastes out of this world. I liketo think its healthy because it contains fruit!!
