Apple and Apricot Coffee Cake

APPLE & APRICOT COFFEE CAKE (adapted from Chocolate & Zucchini)

300 grams red apples (thinly sliced)

200 grams ripe apricots

225 grams all purpose flour

1 tsp baking powder

dash of salt

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 tbsp milk

1/2 tsp baking soda

150 grams of butter

100 grams of sugar

1 egg lightly beaten

Topping:

1 tbsp plain yogurt

1 tbsp sugar

1 egg

Preheat the oven to 350 F.  Butter and lightly flour a 9" cake pan (I used a non-stick skillet).

Mix the flour, baking powder, salt, baking powder, and room temperature butter.  Add in the sugar, and mix.  Add the egg, vanilla, and milk.  Mix until fully combined.  Pour the batter into the pan.  It will be very think, almost like a bread dough, so spread it with a spatula or your hands if needed.  Place the apples in a circular pattern over the top of the mix with the apricots in the center.

In a bowl, combine the yogurt, sugar, and egg and beat with a fork. Pour the mixture over the top of the cake.  Put in the oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until golden.  Leave it in the turned off oven for another 15 minutes.
