I was attracted to this recipe because it doesn't contain any sugar - sweetened solely with apricots and some maple syrup. I enjoyed a warm slice after dinner with a cup of tea and it was moist, not too sweet with nice chunks of almonds.

The suggested baking time was 1 and a half hours but a little after one hour the top was looking very crusty and brown so I took it out. Total baking time was about 70 minutes for me so if you make this keep an eye on it.

This is a heartwarming and beautiful soup. The colours and flavours of the broth and vegetables are warm and attractive. I've never used this particular combination of seasonings together - turmeric, basil, paprika and pinch of cayenne. I liked the flavour.

I had to add a little more water to the pot after adding in the chickpeas and peppers or it would have been more like a very thick stew.
