Apricot Casserole Recipe

This sweet fruit dish is a terrific complement to salty ham on Easter morning. Apricot is a tasty change from the more common pineapple. —Janice Montiverdi, Sugar Land, Texas

I was very pleasantly surprised at how good this was. I had two cans of apricots that were given to me and had no idea what to do with them. I found this recipe and thought I'd try it for Easter dinner. Wonderful! I'm not a fan of apricots, but this was the exception.

I made this for a church luncheon and folks were scraping the dish clean in order to get one last taste. Folks are already requesting it for the next time.
