APRICOT HEAVEN



Apricot Heaven image

Delicious and decadent, in a healthy sort of way! This lovely dessert looks beautiful in a crystal or glass serving dish, when the different layers look very striking. The quantities here serve four (in a dish measuring about 4.75" or 12 cm in diameter, filled to a depth of about 1.75" or 4.5cm), but the recipe multiplies very well. Indeed, it started life as a recipe for 8-10, but I scaled it down! The recipe is very quick and easy to prepare (the cooking time shown includes 3 hours chilling) and the quantities are quite flexible, according to taste, availability and size of serving dish. I used "no soak" dried apricots; if your apricots are very dry (the sort which you can't eat straight from the packet), add a little more water in Step 2 and simmer for longer (until the fruit is tender) before continuing with the recipe. Created for Ready Set Cook #9 (2007), to use the following five ingredients: dried apricots, fresh oranges, Grand Marnier, brown sugar and cinnamon.

Time 3h5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 ounces dried apricots
1 orange
4 ounces water
3 tablespoons Grand Marnier (or Cointreau)
6 ounces natural yoghurt (any thickish non-set yoghurt works welland Greek yoghurt is particularly good)
1/4 cup soft brown sugar (any type of soft brown sugar works well)
1/2-1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (according to taste)

Steps:

  • Squeeze the orange to extract its juice.
  • Put the dried apricots into a small saucepan with the orange juice and water, bring it to the boil then simmer with a lid on for 10 minutes, adding the Grand Marnier towards the end of the cooking time.
  • When the fruit is tender, puree the apricot mixture. Taste it, and add a splash more Grand Marnier if you wish. You should have a thick puree (although the exact consistency doesn't really matter; if it is runnier, you just get a runnier dessert!).
  • Leave the apricot mixture to cool, then spread it neatly in a small glass serving dish.
  • Spread the yoghurt evenly on top, making sure that all of the apricot mixture is covered.
  • In a small bowl, mix the cinnamon and brown sugar, breaking up any lumps, then sprinkle this mixture evenly and thickly over the yoghurt so that the whole surface is covered.
  • Place in the fridge for at least three hours, until ready to serve.
  • The cinnamon-sugar dissolves into the surface of the yoghurt, creating a gorgeous dark syrup.
