• Stir in the oats and apricots.
• Form into balls and flatten onto parchment paper. Again, this is easier to do with wet hands.
• Bake for about 15 to 20 minutes or until the tops look golden (don't wait for them to brown or they will be too hard when they cool).
• To store (and for transportation purposes), I like to wrap each cookie in plastic wrap. Voila! Bakery-style!
