Let's Get Started
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the cold cubed butter to the dry ingredients and use your fingers or a pastry cutter to cut it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the beaten egg, vanilla extract, and milk.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
- Spread half of the cake batter evenly into the prepared cake pan.
- Arrange the sliced apricots on top of the batter.
- In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and ground cinnamon.
- Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the apricots.
- Drop spoonfuls of the remaining cake batter over the apricots and cinnamon sugar.
- Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the top.
- Bake for 40 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve the apricot crumble cake warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
