This recipe comes from the 2005 cookbook, The Best Recipes in the World. Roasting them (the apricots) in the oven...intensifies their sweetness and makes average apricots quite suculent.
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
1 lb fresh apricot, ripe, halved, pitted
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F & generously butter a large baking dish.
2. Put apricot halves, cut side up & in one layer, in the prepared baking dish.
3. Sprinkle with sugar, dot with butter & bake until tender, about 15 minutes, or until the apricots are caramelized with the sugar but still retain their shape.
4. Serve hot with creme fraiche or vanilla ice cream.
