  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar

  5. In another bowl mix rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.

  7. Stir in chopped nuts if using.
  8. Sprinkle the oat crumble evenly over the apricot filling.

Notes

  • Use ripe apricots for the best flavor and natural sweetness.
  • If using frozen apricots, thaw and drain excess liquid before baking.
  • Cold butter helps create a crunchy crumble topping.
  • This dessert tastes great served warm with vanilla ice cream or yogurt.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
