Spiced Dried Apricot Jam - Week 50, 2017

Week 50!  WHAT!!!  It just doesn't seem right!  For the year we have had I am so shocked that it's almost over!  This thermomix spiced dried apricot jam is perfect to sit down and contemplate what 2018 will bring!

I have been blown away with the number of renewals!  Thanks for supporting me even with a format change!  I am looking forward to sharing a couple of new little projects I've started and been working on!!

But back to this recipe - it's so delicious on toast, in little tartlets, in jam drop biscuits or dare I say it even just by the spoon full!

Oh I forgot to mention - no need to wait for apricots to be in season either!  Make all year round and the spice mix just gives it a little extra Christmas punch! :D
