2 tablespoons unsalted butter

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Pinch ground ginger

3 carrots, thinly sliced

Heat the butter in a medium saucepan set over medium heat. Add the cinnamon and ginger and cook until lightly toasted, about 30 seconds. Add 3 cups of water. Stir in the carrots, apricots and 1 teaspoon salt; bring to a boil.
