All dried apricots, dates, pineapple, cranberries or blueberries are varieties we can change up if we want to. Tasty!

Hi Suzanne,
I baked your slice. A bit crumbly but very yummy. I soaked dried blueberries and a few cranberries. Topped with a thin coating of dark chocolate. My snapshot slices aren't as neat as the above photo. lol
Thanks for posting the recipe.

It is yummy. I didn't have apricots so that's why I used those other dried fruit.
