What do you do with a lot of fresh apricots besides making jam?

I adapted this recipe below for breakfast bars and mixed fresh mashed cooked a little bit apricots, with salt, melted butter, 2 eggs and some sugar. Then I added the dry ingredients: oats, flour, salt and baking powder. The apricots may have started to ferment in the fridge or maybe it was the baking powder did this: The batter tasted kind of metalic. or metallica! Then, I poured the batter into a pan that I had melted the butter in. It is now baking for 1/2 hour at around 350 degrees F. I took some still photos of the process and some video and I was going to ask Anna to help me make a video to post on Tiktok or Instagram. Doesn't eveyone pretend to be in a cooking competition or baking competition on TV and dream of becoming famous and make a million forints?
