Preheat oven to 180C. Grease a 16x13cm baking dish.

Spoon in extra sugar and shake to coat base and sides, discarding excess. Set aside.

Beat caster sugar and yolks until thick. Fold in ricotta, zest and lemon juice. Mix apricots with flour, then fold in ricotta mixture.

Pour the mixture into the baking dish and scatter with flaked almonds. Bake for 25 – 35 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean. Cool in the oven for 10 minutes, then serve.
