  Added extra apricot. I have to give this full marks as I forgot to put butter in and halfed the sugar but it still tasted good. Either good recipe or proof we put more sugar and fat in food than need be.

  Came across the recipe when looking for a way to use up egg whites! Cut sugar to 60g and butter to 70g and did not bother sieving the ingredients. Delicious! Might try with blueberries next time.

  Instead of ground almonds could you use coconut ?

  I used dessicated coconut and blueberries and raspberries in non stick muffin tins. They were super tasty, will be making them again but doubling the recipe, you can,t stop at just one !!!

  Following others' suggestions, I used 50g butter, 60g icing sugar and didn't bother sieving the ground almonds. They were plenty sweet enough - apricots lovely - although they were smaller than I'd imagined. Used muffin tin and made 8. Is there a reason that tin has to greased as opposed to using muffin cases, which would've been quicker? Served with ice cream but didn't really need to.

  I love the sound of these but don't have fresh apricots. Do you think I could use dried apricots instead? I can't rate until I've tried the recipe.
