Arrange the apricot halves, skin uppermost, in a gratin dish in 2 layers, sprinkling some sugar between the layers. Mix the eggs, sugar, salt, vanilla sugar and cream together. Cover the apricots with this mixture. Bake in a bain-marie for 30-40 minutes at 180 oC. Dust with icing sugar and serve from the dish. Note : Serve hot or cold with a little whipped cream.
