Apricot " Jam"

Description: In my continuous efforts to reduce my sugar intake, I've found this Apricot Jam recipe that uses Agave or Fructose. This jam keeps in the fridge for a few days and is also wonderful stirred into yogurt, porridge/oatmeal or muesli.

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup dried apricot
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1 teaspoon agave syrup or 1 teaspoon fructose

Steps:

1. Chop the dried apricots into very small pieces.
2. Put the apricots, water and syrup/fructose into a small saucepan and bring to the boil.
3. Boil rapidly for a few minutes, but don't let it boil dry!
4. Take off the heat and allow to cool.
