Ingredients
1 cups Mariani Mediterranean Apricots
1 stick butter
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg |
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup self-rising flour
1 1/2 cups rolled oats |
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375°. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
Cut the apricots in a large dice - I ended up with 6-8 pieces per
apricot, and the pieces were about the size of a chocolate chip.
Cream the butter and brown sugar together in a medium bowl. Add the egg and vanilla. Beat until well-combined and smooth.
Add the flour and mix well. Stir in the oatmeal and apricots.
Use
a small scoop or a spoon to portion the cookie dough onto the prepared
cookie sheets, leaving room for them to spread. (You might need a third
pan, depending on how you arrange them.)
Bake at 375 until the cookies are browned at the edges and no longer
look wet on top - about 12 minutes for smaller cookies 15 min for larger
ones. About halfway through baking, turn the pans around front-to-back,
and swap the upper pan for the lower one, for more even baking.
Let them cool a minute or two on the pans, then cool completely on a rack.
