You won't have to skip dessert when this comforting compote is on the menu. I asked a friend of mine how she could eat dessert and still stay thin, and she handed me this recipe, shares Suzan Wiener of Spring Hill, Florida. A touch of cinnamon and lemon accents the fruit flavor...and the dish is a snap to make. Ingredients:
10 dried apricots, halved and sliced |
1/2 cup water |
4 medium apples, peeled and sliced |
1 tablespoon sugar |
1 teaspoon lemon juice |
1/8 teaspoon grated lemon peel |
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, soak apricots in water for 30 minutes. Drain, reserving 3 tablespoons water. In a saucepan, combine the apricots, apples, sugar and reserved water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 20 minutes or until apples are tender. Remove from the heat. Stir in lemon juice, peel and cinnamon. Serve warm or cold. Yield: 3 servings.
