How to Make Apricot Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8 inch baking pan.
- In a food processor, combine 1 cup dried apricots, ½ cup slivered almonds, and ½ cup walnuts. Pulse until finely chopped but not completely pulverized.
- In a medium bowl, combine the chopped apricot mixture, 1 cup rolled oats, ½ cup brown sugar, ½ cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon salt, and ½ cup melted unsalted butter.
- Stir until well combined.
- Gradually add 2-4 tablespoons of orange juice, mixing until a thick, sticky batter forms. The amount of orange juice needed will depend on the type of apricots used.
- Press the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into 12 bars.
- Once cooled, cut into bars and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week or in the freezer for up to a month.
