Step 1: First, prepare pie dough, two times, flattening each disk, wrapping in saran wrap and refrigerating for at least 5 minutes. It's best to prepare two separate batches than one big batch.
Step 2: Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease an 8 x 8 or 9 x 9 pyrex dish with butter-flavored shortening.
Step 3: Remove first pie dough from fridge, place on floured surface and roll into a rectangle 8" or 9" wide. Slice into 1 inch strips. Criss-cross strips on bottom and around sides of pyrex pan. When first dough used up, roll out second in same manner.
Step 4: Pour apricots into pan, sprinkle with sugar and dot with butter. Criss-cross strips on top, then sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon, to taste.
Step 5: Bake 35 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Serve warm with ice-cream.
Step 6: You'll have leftover pie dough, bake a cinnamon roll at the same time. See my Pie Dough Cinnamon Roll recipe.
