Ingredients

3 C. dried apricots (2 lbs)
2 Tbsp. grated lemon zest
1/2 C. fresh lemon juice
1/2 C. liquid sweetener
3 Tbsp. finely chopped crystallized Ginger

Cooking Instructions

In a heavy saucepan, combine apricots, lemon zest, 1/4 C. lemon juice and 2 C. water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 45 to 60 minutes, or until the apricots are soft. Transfer the apricots and the cooking liquid to a food processor and puree until smooth. Return to the saucepan, along with sweetener and the remaining 1/4 C. lemon juice. Simmer, stirring often, until very thick, about 1 hour. Stir in the crystallized ginger and let cool.
