Recipe Stars
Almonds contain calcium, magnesium, manganese, copper, vitamin K, protein, and zinc, which are important to bone health.
Apricots are rich in vitamin A, beta-carotene, and other carotenoids.
* The reason for the springform pan with removable sides is because the cake you are baking can't be inverted onto a wire rack, due to topping.
