Ingredients
- 1 cup dried apricots
- 0.5 cup water
- 1 pepper chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 1 teaspoon adobo sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 clove garlic clove
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Place the dried apricots in a small saucepan with 1/2 cup of water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 8–10 minutes, or until the apricots are soft and plump.
Step 2
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the apricots to cool slightly. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the cooking liquid and drain the rest.
Step 3
In a blender or food processor, combine the softened apricots, reserved cooking liquid, chipotle pepper, adobo sauce, honey, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, garlic clove, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. Adjust seasoning with additional salt or honey for sweetness, if desired.
Step 5
Transfer the spread to a clean jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 6
Use the spread on sandwiches, wraps, or as a condiment for burgers. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week.
