• Apricot yeast pies - rich pastries. Therefore, eggs, quality margarine or natural butter, sour cream and granulated sugar are always added to the dough for such pies. Also, it may be necessary to introduce sour cream or cottage cheese. Flavor cakes with cinnamon, vanilla sugar or vanilla. So that yeast pies are not stale for a long time, starch is often added to it when kneading dough.
• Apricots for filling the pies take pitted, both fresh and frozen. They are cut into slices, slices or simply divided into halves. Slices of apricot pulp are mixed with sugar and starch. Fruit filling spread on the dough immediately after cooking or stew in a pan with butter, then cooled. In addition to apricots, the filling is very good to use and cottage cheese.
• The surface of closed and half-closed pies must be lubricated with a beaten egg, and then “washed” with water from a spray bottle.

Yeast apricot tart - cooking tricks and helpful tips
• Be sure to add starch to the apricot filling. It envelops pieces of pulp, thereby delaying the intense release of juice from them.
• To make the dough under baking filling not sticky, sprinkle it first with a small amount of ground crackers, and only then spread the apricots.
• If the dough is not smeared with an egg before baking, it will not redden and will be pale. The egg will replace the concentrated sugar syrup. In this case, the top of the cake will also be sweet.
• Do not ignore the procedure of “washing” cakes. It is after this that the products baked from yeast dough become softer.
