Tips:
- Choose ripe and juicy apricots for the best flavor.
- If you don't have fresh apricots, you can use canned or dried apricots.
- To make the bruschetta ahead of time, assemble the bruschetta without the apricots and store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours. When ready to serve, top with the apricots and drizzle with honey.
- For a sweeter bruschetta, use a sweeter variety of apricot, such as the Blenheim apricot.
- If you don't have balsamic glaze, you can make your own by reducing balsamic vinegar in a saucepan over low heat until it thickens and becomes syrupy.
