June 12, 2022
"An interesting pie concept and I think other fruit will also work such as peaches. When I made this I used the full amount of 8 cups apricots -- there is no way you can fold over the pie with that many apricots (quartered), so put another crust on top and it is a delicious pie. I did use the whole 2/3 cup sugar but just regular white sugar. Changed the amount to half the original amount and that way it can be a fold over pie. makes one 9 inch pie Recipe source: Seasonal Fruit Desserts cookbook"
