Indulge a little – and try this simple apricot & yogurt marriage. Its the perfect combination that will keep you and the family’s taste buds wanting more. Made with fresh apricot and yogurt, these golden baked muffins are wonderfully moist and tasty. Dense just enough to hold up the fruit in the batter, but are still very moist and tender. The bread part of the muffin has a light yogurt flavor, but the real flavor comes from the all that fruit, because these Muffins are Loaded with Apricots!

Hi. Great blog. Thank you.
I adore apricots but sadly the fresh ones in the UK aren’t that flavoursome. Can I use dried apricots in the Muffin recipe instead? I also think I would use almond essence as I’m not a great fan of cinnamon.
Hi Ruth,you can try with dried apricot and almond essences.Happy baking!
Where can I find the directions for making these muffins? I see the ingredients but not the directions.
