4 oz. dried apricots,
   finely chopped
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. lemon juice

1. Combine the apricots and 3/4 cup water in a 2-qt. saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the water is evaporated and apricots are plump. Add the sugar, lemon juice, and 1/4 cup water, and cook, stirring frequently, until thickened, 8–10 minutes; remove pan from heat and let cool. Spoon about 1 tbsp. filling into each kolache before baking.
