Baked apricots is a Greek inspired dessert that is quick and easy to make and healthy too.
Ingredients
- 3 tsps mixed shelled walnuts and pistachios
- 4 fresh apricots
- 4 mint leaves roughly torn
- 2 tbsp honey runny honey
- 2 tbsp golden raisins
- 2 tbsp Greek yogurt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4
- Break up the walnuts and pistachios (must be unsalted) and toast them in a dry pan for about 1 minute until just golden and letting out that nutty aroma
- Remove them from hot pan immediately or they will continue to cook and burn
- Half and stone the apricots and place them cut side up in a small baking dish
- Scatter with the toasted nuts and the raisins
- Drizzle with honey and scatter on the mint leaves (save a few pieces for decoration)
- Bake for 15 minutes
- Serve with a dollop of Greek yogurt and a few scatterings of mint leaves
Notes
Baking the apricots in the oven really brings out their flavour, this even works with some store-bought slightly tasteless fruits too.
