Number Of Ingredients 4

1½ pounds ripe apricots
¾ cup honey
¾ cup water
⅛ tsp vanilla

Steps:

  • Wash, pit and chop apricots.

  • Remove from heat and stir in the honey until combined with the apricot-water mixture.
  • Let cool 10-15 minutes.

  • To make Brown Sugar Almond Apricot Sorbet follow the above directions using ¾ cup of muscovado sugar and ⅛ tsp almond extract instead of the honey and vanilla extract.
