- Wash the apricots, pit them, put them in a pot, cover with the sugar, and leave overnight. 2. The next day, set the apricots over low heat, bring to a boil, and cook for half an hour, skimming off the foam as it rises. Then take the pot off the heat and leave it until evening. 3. In the evening, cook the apricots again, this time longer — about two hours — stirring often so the mixture doesn't scorch. After that, leave the apricots overnight once more. 4. In the morning, cook them again for an hour, still stirring frequently to prevent burning, then purée the mixture with an immersion blender. Cook the smooth apricot jam for another half hour. 5. Line a baking sheet with parchment, spread the hot fruit purée in an even layer, and leave it overnight. You can speed things up by drying the layer in the oven at 210°F (100°C) for an hour. 6. Once the leather has dried, dust it generously with powdered sugar, roll it up tightly, cut it into pieces, roll each piece in sugar, and arrange them on a serving dish. 7. Garnish the fruit leather with apricot kernels and serve. Help yourself!
