This apricot and vanilla pudding sheet cake requires no rolling: simply mix the dry ingredients with butter and an egg, then layer with pudding. Spread two-thirds of the crumb mixture in the pan and pour the still-warm vanilla pudding over it, then gently press apricot pieces into the pudding. Scatter the remaining crumbs on top and bake for 40–50 minutes at 180°C (350°F), until golden. Finish with a dusting of powdered sugar. You can substitute another favorite fruit for the apricots.

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

  1. Mix all the crumb mixture ingredients, including the butter. Cook the milk, pudding mixes, and sugar together to make the pudding. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper, spread 2/3 of the crumb mixture evenly over the bottom, and pour the still-warm pudding over it.

  2. Gently press the apricot pieces into the pudding and sprinkle with the remaining crumb mixture. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 40–50 minutes, until the top is golden.

  3. Dust the baked cake with powdered sugar.

Tip: Add cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients and rub it into the flour just until fine crumbs form; the mixture must remain loose and crumbly. Scatter the remaining crumbs all the way into the corners of the pan so none of the pudding is exposed.
