Spotted this recipe on my aunt's fridge last Thanksgiving. Easy and so delicious! I reduced the sugar to 1/2 c and added 1/2 tsp cinnamon. Seems ripe for adaptation! Maybe golden raisins or currants?
1 c chopped dried apricots
2 c all purpose flour
3/4 c sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 egg
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/2 cup melted butter
2 tbl milk or oil
Heat oven to 350 F.
Line or grease muffin pan
Bring 2 c of water to a boil. Turn off heat and soak apricots.
In a large bowl, mix dry ingredients.
In a medium bowl, mix wet ingredients.
Add wet to dry and mix until just combined.
Drain apricots and fold in. Batter will be *thick.*
Fill muffin cups about 3/4 full. Makes 12 muffins.
Bake 20-24 min until tops are golden brown and toothpick in center comes out clean.
Enjoy!! I can also imagine these being amazing with a cream cheese-based icing (like for carrot cake, my personal favorite)...
