Apricot-Pecan Muffins image

A fluffy muffin bursting with flavor. This is a great muffin base recipe. I use it for all my muffin baking, just change the ingredients to use what I have on hand. The apricot is so wonderful. People who don't like apricots even ask for more of these.I Usually use my dehydrated apricots but fresh works great also.
