Cut the apricots into small pieces and keep the sugared water hot in a separate bowl.
Melt the butter over medium heat and roast the flour for 8 minutes until it takes on a light color.
Add the hot sugared water in a thin stream rather than all at once so the flour does not clump.
Cook the halva over low heat for 5 minutes while stirring.
Add the apricots and pull the mixture together for 2 minutes, keeping the fruit from mashing and falling apart.
Rest the halva for 10 minutes and serve warm.
💡 Tip: Cutting the apricots small helps them spread evenly through the halva.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve warm with apricot pieces and walnuts on top.
