Apricot-Ginger Butter image

From "Pancakes from Morning to Midnight" by Dorie Greenspan. Excellent recipe - I am changing the amount of honey listed and omitting the sugar altogether, as the recipe is exceptionally sweet to me.

Time 25m

Yield 2 cups, 32 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups dried apricots, coarsely chopped
1 cup orange juice, fresh
1/2 cup water
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh ginger, peeled and chopped
1 tablespoon honey

Steps:

  • Combine apricots, orange juice, water and ginger in a medium saucepan. Cover tightly and simmer over medium-low heat until the liquid is reduced by half and the apricots are very tneder, about 20 minutes. Stir frequently so the apricots don't stick.
  • Transfer to a food processor fitted with the metal blade and puree until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Add the honey and process to blend.
  • Pack the butter into a jar, cover with plastic wrap, and cool to room temperature. The butter is ready to be served, or cover with a tight-fitting lid and refrigerate. Will keep in the fridge for 3 weeks.
