For babies 4 months and up. Freezes well. I still make this for my toddler, however now I just chop up after boiling. Makes a great snack...cheap too, we purchase dried apricots at the dollar store! I haven't tried with other dried fruits, let me know if you do.

Steps:
- Soak apricots in boiling water in a bowl until hydrated, about 30 minutes. Blend apricots, remaining water, and vanilla extract in a food processor, working in batches, until blended but still slightly chunky.
- Combine apricot mixture with pectin in a large pot over medium heat; cook until just boiling. Add sugar and lemon juice; boil until sugar has dissolved, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Sterilize jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the apricot jam into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4-inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
- Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 minutes.
- Remove jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool, about 1 hour. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

CRANBERRY SAUCE WITH APRICOTS, RAISINS AND ORANGE
Dried apricots make this unique. This is a modified version of a recipe I found on Allrecipes.com. We make it for every Thanksgiving and Christmas we love it so much. We use Splenda, but feel free to use sugar instead. The original recipe called for sugar. NOTE: Make at least 8 hours ahead.
