Notes

Cooking Tips - Don't skip oiling the grill grates. Fresh fruit has a high natural sugar content so when it's grilling, it has a tendency to stick to the grates if they haven't been properly oiled.

Storage - You can save the grilled apricots for up to 3 days in the refrigerator in an airtight container. Store the apricots and the yogurt separately if possible. Reheat them on the grill or in a frying pan on the stove.
