For a richer flavor, use browned butter in the crumble topping. A touch of cinnamon or nutmeg added to the oat mixture can enhance the warm, comforting notes of this dessert. Store leftover apricot cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Chopping apricots using a food processor will save your time.
