| Sautéed Apple Slices with Apricot Sauce
Serves: 8
Ingredients:
10 Dried Apricots (3 oz.)
2-16 oz. Cans apricot halves, drained (juice-pak)
1/3 c Water
1/3 c Sugar
3 Mott's® greening or Granny Smith apples (1 1/2 lbs total), cored, peeled
and cut into sixteenths
1 t Vanilla
Preparation:
For apricot sauce: Combine dried apricots in bowl
with enough hot water to cover and let stand 10 minutes to soften. Drain
thoroughly.
Steel knife: Puree dried apricots in work bowl 10 seconds. Add drained
canned apricots and blend 20 seconds. With machine running, add 1/4 cups
water and mix well (consistency should be thick but flowing; add remaining
water if necessary). Transfer to container. Cover tightly and chill until
15 minutes before serving time.
For apples: Combine apple slices, sugar and vanilla
in large skillet. Place over high heat and cook, tossing mixture with
spatula, until apples are tender but still crisp, about 3 minutes.
Spoon 3 tablespoons apricot sauce on each dessert plate. Arrange 6 warm
apples slices on to. Serve immediately.
