Apricot fool
for 4 people
In this simple fruit fool, fold gently cooked apricots with amaretto biscuits through cream or greek yoghurt. This is a great stand-by dessert for summer. Keep a bowl of stewed apricots at the ready in the fridge for this dish, or use plums, equally as delicious. Stewed fruits are also fabulous on your morning muesli.
