Steps:
- Soak the apricots in the water overnight.
- The next day, put the apricots and their soaking water in a small pan along with the sugar. Bring to a simmer and simmer approx 10 minutes so that the sugar is dissolved and the syrup thickens slightly. Remove from the heat and leave to cool. Note that to here can be done ahead of time.
- Put approximately 1tsp of yogurt in the opening of each apricot and then press a pistachio or almond into the yogurt. Repeat with the rest of the apricots and serve with a little more nuts on the side for decoration.

Steps:
- Soak the apricots in 2 cups of cold water for 8 hours or overnight.
- After the apricots have finished soaking, remove them from their soaking liquid. You should have about 1 cup of liquid left. Add more water if needed to reach 1 cup.
- Combine the soaking liquid with the lemon juice and sugar in a medium saucepan, and bring to a boil. Gently add the apricots to the liquid, and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the apricots are very tender, but not mushy, 10 to 20 minutes. I found the apricots cooked unevenly, so it's best to check the apricots as you go and remove them individually to a plate when they are tender. Allow the apricots to cool to room temperature.
- Once all the apricots are removed from the liquid, increase the heat to a full boil, and continue to cook until the sauce is reduced slightly and starting to become syrupy. It should easily coat the back of a spoon. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
- Use a paring knife to gently open each apricot about halfway. Carefully spoon the filling into each, then dip the exposed filling in the chopped pistachios.
- Arrange the stuffed apricots on a serving platter, drizzle with the syrup, and scatter any remaining pistachios over top.

Steps:
- Mix ricotta, honey and cinnamon.
- Spoon mixture into a piping bag with a star tip. I use a #18, but any size will work as long as it is large enough for the ricotta mixture to be piped through it.
- Take each apricot and roll it in your fingers to reveal the hole made when the pits were removed. Pipe the ricotta mixture into this hole, filling the apricot.

ALBICOCCHE AL FORNO (BAKED APRICOTS WITH AMARETTI)
A delicious Italian classic often also made with peaches, but I prefer it with apricots. The apricots are filled with amaretti cookies, amaretto, sugar and egg yolk and baked in the oven with white wine. They can be served warm or at room temperature and are delicious paired with vanilla ice cream or white chocolate mousse. However, I also love them on their own. They were a big hit at a party I catered for. However, at the party I had far too much filling for the apricots. Maybe I've made a mistake when multiplying the recipe. I will try it out again and make changes to the recipe if necessary.

Steps:
- Please note: I will have to check the amount of filling and the amount of apricots again, which I will do soon. If you decide to make it, please have some extra apricots ready.
- Preheat oven to 180°C (355°F).
- Put amaretti cookies into a small bowl and pour the amaretto over it.
- Wash apricots and cut them in halves. Discard the stone.
- Using a spoon, take out some of the fruit flesh without hurting the skin. Roughly chop the fruit flesh.
- Add sugar, egg yolk and chopped apricot flesh to the amaretti cookies and mix. While mixing, crush the cookies with a spoon. Do not mix for too long; it's nice to have some cookie chunks.
- Fill the apricots with the mixture, ca 1 tablespoon per half.
- Put into a well buttered oven-proof baking dish.
- Pour white wine over apricots.
- Bake for ca 25 minutes or until done.
