Notes
*This recipe was written using an average of the dip and sweep method for measuring flour and the spoon and level method. If you are using a scale, you will need to add 3/4 oz or 22 g to the measurement for each cup of flour.
- When making the batter, be sure there are no lumps! It needs to be very smooth.
- Don't skip allowing the batter to rest! This is very important.
- If you would like, you can cut the apricots smaller.
- Be sure to completely butter and sugar your pan. The bottom and sides of the pan need to be coated thoroughly!
- Bake time may vary depending on how your oven cooks. Keep an eye on it.
- Serve this clafoutis warm!
