Instructions
Step 1
Soak the dried apricots in hot water for about 5 - 10 minutes. When they've softened, drain the water BUT RESERVE 1 Tbsp of the water. Place the apricots in the food processor.
Step 2
Add all the other ingredients to the food processor except the reserved water, 1 tsp of the lemon zest, coconut and any other toppings you may be including. Blend until the mixture turns into a dough-like consistency.
Step 3
If the mixture is too dry, add the reserved 1 Tbsp of soaking water.
Step 4
In a parchment lined 8x8 dish, add the mixture and press down to evenly distribute the dough. (You may not need parchment, I just find it easiest to cut the bars later.)
Step 5
Top with coconut, remaining 1 tsp of lemon zest and any other desired toppings
Step 6
Refrigerate at least 2 - 3 hours before serving to firm up. The end result is meant to be soft and sticky. Store covered in the refrigerator.
