Ingredients
- 2 eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tbsp molasses
1/2 cup oil
2 cups Pamela’s baking & pancake mix
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 tsp fresh ground cardamom
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1 cup plain whole milk yogurt
2 ripe apricots
2 tbsp milk
1/2 cup coarsely chopped almonds
1/2 cup unsweetened dried apricots, chopped
Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. In a mixer, whisk eggs and sugar until pale yellow and thick, about 3 minutes.
3. Add oil and molasses to egg mixture, and beat for another minute.
4. In a separate bowl, combine baking mix, baking soda, salt, cocoa powder, and cardamom.
5. Puree apricots and milk in a blender until very smooth and creamy.
6. Combine apricot puree with yogurt.
7. With the mixer running on low, add a third of the yogurt mixture and a third of the flour mixture at a time, alternating, until combined.
8. Fold almonds and dried apricots into the batter.

11. Dust with powdered sugar and serve with good coffee, or with fresh apricot wedges and a dollop of yogurt.
