Apricot Sauce
Apricot Sauce
2015-11-25 00:02:25
A delicious, natural, and healthy apricot sauce that makes everything taste better!
Prep Time
2 min
Ingredients
- 1 1/2-2 cups apricots
- Approx 6-10 cups water
Instructions
- Simmer apricots covered in water. Add more water as is simmers down.
- Cook until fully soft. About 25-30 minutes.
- Put apricots in blender with remaining water. Puree until totally smooth.
- Add more water whilst blending depending on the level of thickness you want.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- This will make a very large amount. I make this size because it's so great to use on so many things. Freeze what you don't use. A sauce that is great to have on hand for a variety of desserts or other dishes. Add to smoothies, on top of ice cream, in frozen cocktails, with yogurt, with oatmeal, and so much more!
