How to make
The egg yolks are separated and beaten well along with the sugar. Beat the egg whites until they foam up and carefully add them to the beaten egg whites.
Gradually add the sifted flour and baking powder to the mixture - mix gently with a spatula.
In the baking pan, in which you will cook the cake, caramelize the remaining sugar and butter.
Arrange the apricots (cut in half) with the cut side down.
Pour the sponge cake dough on top and bake in a preheated oven at 360°F (180 degrees) until it's done.
The apricot cake is left to cool well.
