Steps:
- 1. Top each apricot half with 2 tablespoons of the yogurt, drizzle with the honey, sprinkle with the pistachios, and serve.
- 2. While it's not necessary, if you want to give your plain (i.e., non-Greek) yogurt a thicker consistency, line a sieve with a paper coffee filter and set it over a bowl. Empty an 8-ounce container into the sieve, cover it loosely with plastic wrap, and place it in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours.

Steps:
- Butter the base of a 23cm springform tin and line with a circle of baking parchment. Blitz the biscuits to fine crumbs in a food processor, then tip into a bowl and mix with the butter. Pack the mixture into the base of the tin and chill for 10 mins.
- Whip the double cream to soft peaks. In a separate bowl, whisk together the yogurt, soft cheese, honey and vanilla until smooth. Fold in the cream and spoon over the base. Smooth over the top with a spatula and cover. Chill for at least 4 hrs or overnight.
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Toss the apricots with the 50g honey, the orange zest and vanilla on a baking tray. Roast on the middle shelf for 20-25 mins until the apricots are tender but still hold their shape. Toss everything halfway through, adding 1 tbsp water if the honey starts to catch. Leave to cool, discarding the orange and vanilla pod.
- Use a knife to release the sides of the cheesecake and remove from the tin. Spoon over the apricots along with the roasting juices. Drizzle extra honey over the top, allowing it to run down the sides.

BAKED APRICOTS WITH HONEY
Yield 1.5 cups
Number Of Ingredients 3
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Cut each apricot in half and remove the pit. Arrange cut side up in a baking dish, cake pan and pie dish. Evenly drizzle the honey over the apricots, filling the hollow of each half. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Bake for 15 minutes. Using a fork, flip each half cut side down, being careful not to splash yourself with the hot syrup inside the hollows. Bake for another 5-10 minutes, until the apricots are soft to the touch and slightly wrinkled, but have not yet totally collapsed. Let cool and transfer to a jar or other covered container. Apricots will keep for one week in the refrigerator. If your apricots are very soft and ripe, start checking for doneness earlier. If they are a little underripe or on the larger side, they may need to bake longer. Enjoy the baked apricots and their syrup on top of yogurt, ice cream or cottage cheese, mixed into oatmeal, muddled in cocktails (or mocktails), spooned over cake or biscuits, or smooshed on toast with nut butter or cream cheese.

Time 30m
Yield 4 to 6 servings
Number Of Ingredients 8
Steps:
- Heat oven to 300 degrees. Peel lemons, avoiding white pith, and toss strips into a large saucepan. Squeeze juice through a strainer into saucepan; add sugar and 2 cups water. Cover and bring to a boil, stirring once. Remove lid and simmer until mixture reduces slightly, about 10 minutes.
- Halve and pit apricots and place them cut-side down in a single layer in a small roasting pan. Apricots should be snug. Strain reduced hot syrup over them. Cover fruit flush with foil and braise in oven for 5 minutes. Turn apricots over carefully, replace foil, and braise 5 minutes more. Remove apricots from oven, turn again and cool. Transfer apricots, covered by their liquid, to a shallow container with cover, and refrigerate 4 hours or overnight.
- Remove apricot halves from their liquid and drain on paper towels. Pour syrup in a saucepan and reduce over high heat until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. In a small bowl, stir yogurt, confectioners' sugar and salt together until smooth. Spoon warm sauce on each plate, topped by 2 or 3 apricot halves. Spoon yogurt into their centers. Drizzle with honey and sprinkle with nuts.
