A classic dessert made by softening dried apricots in syrup and filling them with kaymak and walnuts. Its elegant appearance and delicate sweetness make it a favorite for entertaining.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Simmer the apricots

15 min

Simmer the dried apricots with the water and sugar over low heat until tender, taking care not to let them fall apart.

2

Cool in the syrup

20 min

Remove the cooked apricots from the heat with the syrup and let them cool to room temperature.

3

Open and fill the centers

10 min

Gently open the centers of the cooled apricots and fill each with one 5 ml measure of kaymak.

4

Garnish with walnuts

5 min

Sprinkle the filled apricots with crushed walnuts and, if desired, pistachios, then serve.

Reminder

Important: The apricots can fall apart if simmered in the syrup for too long, so cook them over low heat only until tender. Allergen note: contains walnuts (tree nuts) and dairy (milk/kaymak); tell anyone with a nut allergy before serving.
