  • 2 cups Rice Krispies
  • 1 cup chopped almonds
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2/3 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions

  1. Dice the apricots. Heat them in a saucepan with the butter and honey over low heat until the butter melts.
  2. Process the cereal in a food processor until it resembles fine crumbs. Mix the cereal crumbs in a bowl with the almonds, egg, egg yolk and flour.
  3. Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray an 11 x 7 inch baking pan with cooking spray.

  5. In another small bowl, mix the jam and lemon juice – spread it on top of the cereal mixture in the pan. Press the remaining cereal mixture on top.
  6. Bake on the middle rack of the oven for about 30 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
