Easy Apricot Pie

This simple apricot pie is so easy to make you'll want to bake it right away. Why not, if, moreover, it can be done fairly quickly?!

And everything else is really a matter of technique: whipped, mixed, chopped, added, put in the oven. By the way, you can easily complement a simple apricot pie with cherries or blackcurrants: it will turn out very beautiful and unusually tasty!
