Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides for easy lifting.
2
Make the apricot filling: combine the chopped dried apricots, water, 2 tbsp honey, lemon juice, and ground ginger in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the apricots are very soft and most of the liquid has been absorbed, about 10–12 minutes. Transfer to a food processor and pulse until a thick, spreadable paste forms. Set aside.
