Saw this on FoodTV's Easy Entertaining with Michael Chiarello. Holy cow is this stuff good. I tweaked this very slightly (adjusted amounts of fruit) to my own taste. Ingredients:
4 large apples |
2 large pears |
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped |
2 bay leaves |
5 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, divided |
1/3 cup balsamic vinegar |
1/3 cup brown sugar |
3 tablespoons butter |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
2. Peel and core apples and pears, cut each into 8 wedges. Place in large bowl and toss with 2 T. lemon juice.
3. Melt butter over medium heat in skillet until it stops foaming and is slightly brown.
4. Add rosemary, bay leaves, remaining 3 T. lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, and brown sugar.
5. Heat to boiling and reduce slightly.
6. Pour over fruit and toss to coat.
7. Pour into roasting pan or onto a cookie sheet WITH SIDES.
8. Bake for 3-8 hours, turning each hour.
9. Fruit should be slightly dried, but not dried to the extent of fruit leather.
10. Store tightly covered in refrigerator for up to one week.
