Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Arrange the apricot halves in a baking dish, cut-side up. Add 2 tbsp water, then dust the apricots with the ginger and drizzle with 1½ tbsp honey. Roast for 15 mins until the fruit is soft but not collapsing. Set aside to cool for 5 mins, then crush roughly with the back of a fork, transfer to a bowl and leave to cool completely.

  2. Meanwhile, combine the yogurt, custard, a small pinch of salt and the remaining honey in a bowl. Layer the yogurt mixture, smashed apricots and a scattering of honeycomb in 4 x 150ml glasses, finishing with a final scatter of honeycomb.

Get ahead: Make all the components up to 2 days ahead, then assemble when ready to serve.
