Time to prepare: 15 minutes

Cooking time: 20 minutes

Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
• 3-4 apricots, sliced and stones removed
• 1 tablespoon arrowroot
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla paste
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon demerara sugar
• 1 egg, beaten lightly, mixed with 1 tablespoon water
• Icing sugar for dusting

Directions

1. Pre heat oven 200°C.
2. In a medium bowl, toss apricot with arrowroot, sugar, vanilla, lemon juice until there are no lumps. Set aside for 10 minutes.
3. Place pastry on a lightly flour surface, cut into 4 squares. Spoon apricots evenly into each square and gently pull one side over to the other, making a triangle.
4. Use a fork to seal edges, brush with egg wash and cut a few slits in the top of each to allow steam to release. Sprinkle with demerara sugar and bake for 20 minutes or until risen and golden.
5. Serve dusted with icing sugar.
