Spread the love

Ingredients for 4 servings:

  • 1 pack of mixed dried fruits
  • 1 liter apple juice
  • 1 vanilla pod(s)
  • 1 stalk(s) cinnamon
  • some star anise

Instructions

Working time approx. 5 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 40 minutes; Total time approx. 45 minutes

Heat the apple juice and reduce by about half. In the meantime, chop the dried fruit into small pieces. Add the cinnamon, vanilla bean, and star anise to the juice. Once the juice has reduced, add the dried fruit and simmer over low heat for about 20 minutes. If desired, you can add more sugar. However, I find it sweet enough as it is. It goes well with vanilla ice cream or gingerbread parfait.
