Fun fact: I was recently approached by a company that sells adaptogenic mushroom powders that they claim shrink tumors and I ... declined that brand partnership.

Made this yesterday and already know this will be a summer baking staple! What a genius idea to turn dried fruit into fruit butter - can't wait to try this with everything!

I am SO glad you liked it! I've turned dried cherries, prunes, dates, and apricots all into fab butters. Camilla Wynne also has an incredible apricot butter recipe that uses verjus as the liquid base - so much room for creativity and experimentation.

As an apricot stan, I cannot wait to bake this. Also loved hearing that your inspiration was the raspberry danish! God, I used to love that at church coffee hours. 😂

it truly has a magical quality to it, doesn't it! I love an old fashioned preservative filled treat sometimes.

This looks fantastic. My bookclub always loves new cakes & yes I agree wholeheartedly about food using dried ingredients when in seasonal lulls ( my mother’s currant pie in midwinter was divine). Do you think gluten free flour will work ok ?
