An apricot is a small, round-to-oval, orange-yellow stone fruit known for its sweet-tart flavor and velvety skin, belonging to the Prunus genus along with plums and peaches. Rich in vitamins, particularly vitamin A, fiber, and antioxidants, apricots support vision, skin, and digestive health. They can be eaten fresh, or processed into dried forms, jams, and baked goods.
