Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium, peeled, cored, and sliced apples
- 2 medium, peeled, cored, and sliced pears
- 1 cup, fresh or canned (drained) pineapple chunks
- 1 cup, halved pitted prunes
- 1 cup orange juice
- 0.5 cup, packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 4 units whole cloves
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine sliced apples, sliced pears, pineapple chunks, and halved prunes.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine orange juice, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and whole cloves. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely and the mixture is warm.
Pour the warm spiced orange juice mixture over the fruit in the bowl and gently toss to coat the fruit evenly.
Transfer the fruit mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it out in an even layer.
Dot the top of the fruit mixture with small pieces of the unsalted butter.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the fruit is tender and the syrup is bubbling.
Remove the whole cloves before serving and enjoy the warm fruit compote on its own or as a topping for yogurt, pancakes, or ice cream.
