And I only baked for 15 minutes.         Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       07/17/2010   Just wondering if anyone tried this recipe? Well I did, and I have to say I am less than pleased. Instead of nice apricot halves with a nice crumbly topping (like in the picture), I ended up with a mushy mess, and I did NOT use over-ripe fruit. I'm wondering if it might be that the oven temperature is too high? 400 C seems kind of high to bake fruit. I'm certain that my oven is NOT malfunctioning either.
