Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

  • 1 vanilla bean, split and scraped

  • 2/3 cup blanched whole almonds, toasted

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

  • 1 large egg

  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 1 tablespoon dark rum

  • 3/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract

  • One 3/4-pound loaf brioche

  • 1/2 cup apricot jam

  • 1/2 cup unblanched sliced almonds, for serving

  • Confectioners’ sugar, for dusting

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees and line baking sheet with parchment paper.

Make the simple syrup: In a small pot, combine sugar, 1/2 cup water, and vanilla bean; cook over medium-high heat, stirring, until sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes.

Make the frangipane: In bowl of a food processor, combine almonds and sugar and process until finely ground. Add butter, egg, flour, rum, salt, and almond extract, and process until frangipane is smooth.

Assemble the bostock: Slice brioche into eight 1-inch-thick slices. Brush both sides of each slice with simple syrup; place on prepared baking sheet. Spread each top evenly with 1 tablespoon jam and then 3 tablespoons frangipane.

Bake until golden brown, 13 to 15 minutes. Sprinkle with sliced almonds and dust with confectioners’ sugar before serving.
