Apricot is another favorite fruit of mine. I know that my mom loved apricots also. She made these bars all the time. It is so delicious. Great for breakfast with your favorite coffee.

These bars were a total disaster. They were dry, crumbly, and tasteless. I would not recommend this recipe.

I'm not a big fan of apricots, but I thought these bars were still pretty good. The oat and spice flavors really came through.

Overall, I thought these bars were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

The bars were a bit dry. I think I should have added more butter.

The bars were a little too sweet for my taste. Next time, I will use less sugar.
