by Cindi Sutter, Founder & Editor Spirited Table®
Ingredients
2 Tbsp slivered almonds
1/2 cup apricot jam
2 Tbsp Grand Marnier
2 tsp sugar
2 containers strawberries-hulled
Instructions
Set oven to 325°. Toast almonds on cookie sheet for 5 minutes
Warm jam, grand marnier and sugar in a small saucepan. Pour through a sieve or strainer.
Arrange strawberries in shallow ovenproof dish. Pour sieved grand marnier mixture over strawberries. Sprinkle almonds on top. Bake at 325°until thoroughly heated.
Cook’s Note -Hulling or coring strawberries=removing the green stem, or calyx, from the top of the berry—makes them more elegant and easier to eat when served plain. ... They should smell—you guessed it!—like strawberries.
