Recipe Notes
If you can't find canned apricot halves in juice, you can also use those packed in light syrup or heavy syrup (just be sure to adjust your WW Points accordingly).You might be surprised to see this recipe using almond extract. But this secret taste pairing works so well because of the apricot pits, which contain a kernel that apparently tastes just like an almond! And this makes sense since both almonds and apricots (along with cherries, peaches and plums) belong to the same "stone fruit" family known as the prunus family.Serving size: generous ½ cupClick here to see your WW PersonalPoints for this recipe and track it in the WW app or site.1*PointsPlus (Old plan)
