Best 6 Apple Raisin Compote Recipes

WARM APPLE COMPOTE

Steps:

• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir pecans in melted butter until lightly toasted, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer toasted pecans to a bowl with a slotted spoon, reserving butter in pan. Cook and stir apples in reserved butter until apples begin to soften, about 2 minutes; add sugar.
• Stir water, raisins, and salt into apple mixture. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until raisins are plump, about 5 minutes. Add whiskey, vanilla extract, and toasted pecans.

APPLE COMPOTE

Steps:

• In a saucepot on medium-high heat, add the apples, orange juice, lemon juice, brown sugar and nutmeg. Simmer over medium heat until the apples are tender and the juices are thickened to a thin syrup, 10 to 12 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt.

CREAMY YOGURT PORRIDGE WITH APPLE & RAISIN COMPOTE

Steps:

• For the apple topping: Poach apples in a covered pan with raisins and orange juice for 8-10 mins until the apple is tender. Mash a little of the apple to thicken the juice. Can be made ahead and chilled for up to 1 week. Serve warm or cold on the porridge with sunflower seeds.
• For the porridge: Tip 400ml water into a small non-stick pan and stir in porridge oats. Cook over a low heat until bubbling and thickened. (To make in a microwave, use a deep container to prevent spillage as the mixture will rise up as it cooks, and cook for 3 mins on High.) Stir in yogurt - or swirl in half and top with the rest.

PORK MEDALLIONS TOPPED WITH GOAT CHEESE AND APPLE RAISIN CINNAMON COMPOTE

Steps:

• Coat the pork medallions with flour mixture, shaking off excess. Heat canola oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet and sear the pork on both sides until crust turns golden brown, about 5 to 8 minutes. Remove to a warm place and let rest. Pour off most of the oil from skillet, leaving only a coating. Add the apples and raisins and saute for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the veal stock and cinnamon. Swirl butter into the apple mixture to make a sweet and savory apple compote. Spoon some apple compote into the center of each of 6 plates. Place 2 pork medallions on top of apples, and spoon a little more compote on top of pork. Crumble cheese and place on top of apples so their warmth slowly melts the cheese and then serve.

APPLE-RAISIN COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. In a medium bowl, whisk together flours, baking soda, nutmeg, salt, and pinch of cloves. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and brown sugar on high, scraping down bowl as needed, until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time, scraping down bowl after each addition. With mixer on low, beat in half the flour mixture, then milk and remaining flour mixture. Beat just until combined.
• With a rubber spatula, fold apples and raisins into dough. Drop dough in 2-tablespoonful mounds, 2 inches apart, onto two baking sheets. Bake until cookies are firm around edges, about 14 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Let cool completely on wire racks.
• In a small bowl, whisk together confectioners' sugar and 1 tablespoon water. Transfer to a zip-top bag. Snip a very small hole in one corner and drizzle glaze over cookies.
