This apricot and amaretto pavlova recipe is a showstopping summer dessert made easy thanks to our ready-made pavlova base. Juicy apricots are gently stewed with amaretto, cinnamon and sugar until soft, creating a fragrant syrup to drizzle over at the end. Piled onto a light cream and custard topping and finished with pistachios and crumbled meringue, it makes a wow-worthy centrepiece for your next gathering.
