I had something at a friend's once that involved baked peaches, which I think would be nice with apricots. Halve them and pack open side up into an oven-proof dish, then drizzle with some kind of suitable liqueur. Scatter with flaked almonds (friend used crushed ameretti biscuits). Bake until soft and fragrant and serve with cream.

bumping for myself

As always at this time of year, I bought a load of apricots off the market because I like their colour but they're not too great eaten raw. I fancy making something tasty with them, possibly a custardy or bread+buttery pudding...they taste like they will benefit from some oven time. Does anyone have a good recipe?

TIA
