✦ Beta-carotene ✦ Potassium ✦ Dietary fibre ✦ Iron

Apricots are small orange stone fruits with velvety skin and sweet-tart flesh, rich in beta-carotene. Dried apricots concentrate this carotenoid along with fibre, potassium and iron into a chewy, energy-dense form.

Preparation note

Drying preserves carotenoids and minerals well but destroys most vitamin C and concentrates natural sugars, so portions should be modest.
