Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh apricots, halved and pitted
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon butter (for greasing the baking dish)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Lightly grease a baking dish with butter.
  3. Arrange the halved apricots evenly across the bottom of the dish.
  4. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar until smooth.
  5. Add the milk, flour, vanilla extract, and salt, then whisk until a smooth batter forms.
  6. Pour the batter gently over the apricots.
  7. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until the edges are golden and the center is set.
  8. Remove from the oven and allow the flaugnarde to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Use ripe apricots for the best flavor and natural sweetness.
  • A light dusting of powdered sugar can be added before serving for extra sweetness.
  • The dessert can be served warm or at room temperature.
  • Allow the flaugnarde to rest for about 10 minutes after baking so the custard sets properly.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for several days.
