Apricot Preserves

Apricot Preserves

EverydaySweetened

Apricot preserves are a sweetened fruit spread made by cooking whole or chunky apricot pieces with sugar and pectin, retaining the fruit’s fibrous texture and bright flavor. Unlike smoother jams or jellies, preserves emphasize visible fruit fragments, offering modest amounts of vitamin A and C from the apricots alongside concentrated natural sugars. This thick, glossy condiment is commonly used in pastries, glazes, and sandwiches, but its high added sugar content warrants portion-conscious consumption.
