Prep time:
5 mins
Cook time:
40 mins
Serves:
6
  • 6 large or 8-10 small apricots
  • 1 cup cream
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 cups shredded coconut
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract 

Preheat oven to 160°C / 325°F and line a baking dish with baking paper for easy clean-up.

Halve apricots and remove stones. Pack closely in a single layer in the baking dish, cut-side up.Place cream and sugar in a medium pot and heat, stirring, until the cream boils and the sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat and mix in coconut and vanilla. Divide over the apricots.

Bake until topping is golden and crispy and apricots are soft (about 40 minutes). If macaroon browns too rapidly, cover with foil until apricots are cooked through. Delicious served hot with chilled Lemon Syllabub.

I ended up using un-sweetened coconut as the recipe calls for sugar. I used 2/3 of the recipe for 5 large apricots. This was wonderful! The crunchy topping with the warm apricots are an amazing combo. I served them with whipped cream flavored with Amaretto and topped with toasted sliced almonds. Next time I think I will add 1/4 tsp of almond flavoring to the coconut mix to bring out more of the almond flavor which is lovely with apricots.

Annabel, are you using sweetened shredded coconut or Unsweetened? Apricots are now in season here and want to make this.
