Instructions

  1. Bring the apricots to the boil with the orange juice, sugar and cinnamon. Simmer gently for about 10 minutes without the lid. Take out the apricots and squeeze them out lightly. Reduce the remaining juice to approx. 3 tablespoons of syrup and allow to cool.
  2. In the meantime, wash the chilli pepper and remove the stem, stones and walls. Chop the chilli pepper. Roast walnuts dry and chop into small pieces (not to powder). Cut the lemon balm and mint leaves into fine strips.
  3. Mix the goat cream cheese with the syrup and fold in the walnuts, chilli, lemon balm and mint. Season to taste with salt, cayenne pepper, black pepper and possibly some cinnamon powder.
  4. Cut open the apricots and fill with the goat cream cheese mixture. Chill for 30 minutes before serving.
  5. Delicious finger food or dessert and can also be served well as a starter with a little celery salad.

Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
