I cut this recipe by half as its just me eating it and was unsure if I would like it but I thought is was very very nice and I have another serving for this evening before bed which is just great. I added a spoonful of peanut butter and I didn't have any apricots so I subed with dry cherries I will be using this for breakfast alternately from now on. Thank you for posting.
