Preparation

Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat muffin cups with nonstick spray.

Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.

Using an electrical mixer, beat butter and sugar in another medium bowl, from time to time scraping down sides of bowl, until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add egg, lemon zest, and vanilla and beat until combined.

With mixer on low speed, add dry ingredients to butter mixture in 3 additions alternately with milk in 2 additions, beginning and ending with dry ingredients.

Divide batter amongst muffin cups (cups will be only 1/3 full) and smooth the tops. Top with apricot slices and sprinkle with raw sugar.

Bake until cakes are golden and a tester inserted into the centers comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes.

Transfer pan to a wire rack; let pan cool 5 minutes. Transfer cakes to rack and let cool fully.

Cakes can be made 1 day ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.
