Apricot Whip

This recipe is from Martha Stewart Kids magazine, and is used as a filling for the cakes in Recipe #. I made a half sized version of the cakes, so I only made a half recipe of this. This also made for good baby food. :) This is the darker orangey stuff in the photos.

Ingredients

Makes 1 serving

  • 4 water
  • 6 salt

Method

  1. Put apricots and water in a medium pan. Cover and bring to a boil.

  2. Reduce heat to low; cook until very tender (45 minutes to one hour).

  3. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to baking sheet to cool slightly.

  4. Puree apricots and salt (if you are using it) in a food processor until completely smooth and the consistency of thick jam. Let cool.

  5. Refrigerate airtight for up to 1 day.

Cook's notes

  • Use frozen apricots for a thicker, more 'ice cream-like' consistency.
  • Blend in short pulses to ensure you achieve a light, airy whipped texture.
  • If the mixture is too thick, add a tablespoon of unsweetened almond milk to help the blender process the fruit.

Easy swaps

  • Swap apricots for frozen peaches or nectarines for a similar flavor profile.
  • Use a touch of stevia or monk fruit sweetener if you want to keep the carb count at absolute zero.
  • Add a dash of vanilla extract or cinnamon for an extra layer of depth.
