This apricot, quark, and semolina bake is made without flour and contains a full kilogram of juicy fruit. The apricots are briefly blanched, peeled, and chopped, then combined with semolina and baking powder and folded into a mixture of strained quark (farmer's cheese), eggs, butter, sugar, yogurt, and lemon. The mixture is spread in a greased 26 cm pan coated with ground almonds, with more almonds sprinkled on top.
The bake cooks for an hour at 175 °C (350 °F), until golden on top.

Instructions
Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.
- Dip the apricots in boiling water for 2–3 seconds, then remove them and rinse with cold water. Peel, pit, and chop them. Press the quark through a sieve. Let 50 g of the butter soften, then beat it with the sugar. Add the salt and quark and mix, then stir in the zest of one lemon, the eggs, and the yogurt.
- Mix the semolina with the baking powder, add the apricot pieces, and mix thoroughly. Combine the quark mixture with the apricot mixture. Grease a baking pan, ideally 26 cm in diameter, with 20 g of butter and sprinkle with half the almonds.
- Spread the quark and apricot mixture in the pan and smooth the top, using a wet knife, for example. Sprinkle with the remaining ground almonds. Bake in an oven preheated to 175 °C (350 °F) for 60 minutes, until golden on top.
Tip: Let the chopped apricots drain in a strainer for a little while; otherwise, their juice could leave the center watery before the semolina has time to thicken it.
