These preserves are made by softening dried apricots in warm water and sweetening them, so they are easy to make even when fresh apricots are out of season. Whole almonds add texture and visual appeal.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Soften the apricots

180 min

Soak the dried apricots in lukewarm water for at least 3 hours to soften them, then drain.

2

Fill with almonds

10 min

Gently open the center of each softened apricot and place an almond inside.

3

Simmer with the sugar

25 min

Bring the sugar, water, and lemon juice to a boil. Add the apricots and cook over low heat, skimming off the foam, until the syrup thickens.

Reminder

If you start boiling the apricots before soaking them in water for at least 3 hours, they may stay firm and will not absorb the syrup well. Contains tree nuts (almonds).
