Apples and pears are almost always popular, so this warm, comforting dessert recipe is great for potlucks or other get-togethers. I also like to add raisins or chopped nuts to the compote, and for a more adult flavor I add 1/3 cup brandy or rum.-Nancy Heishman, Las Vegas, Nevada

Yield Makes about 6 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups apple cider
6 tablespoons light corn syrup
2 tablespoons (packed) golden brown sugar
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
3 Golden Delicious apples, peeled, cored, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 cups cranberries (fresh or frozen)
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon (about) sugar

Steps:

  • Whisk apple cider, corn syrup, and brown sugar in heavy large saucepan. Boil over high heat until reduced to 1 cup, about 15 minutes. Add 4 tablespoons butter; whisk until melted. Remove from heat.
  • Melt remaining 4 tablespoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add apple pieces; sauté 2 minutes. Add cranberries and 1/2 cup sugar. Stir until cranberries begin to pop, about 2 minutes. Stir in reduced cider mixture. Boil until reduced to syrup consistency, about 6 minutes. Stir in more sugar, if desired. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Stir over medium heat until heated through.) Transfer compote to bowl and serve warm.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh cranberries: Fresh cranberries are plump, bright red, and firm. Avoid cranberries that are soft or bruised.
  • Use a variety of apples: Different types of apples will give your compote different flavors and textures. Try using a mix of tart and sweet apples, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady.
  • Grate the ginger: Grating the ginger will help release its flavor and aroma. You can also use ground ginger, but be sure to use less, as it is more concentrated.
  • Simmer the compote until it thickens: The compote should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. If it is too thin, continue to simmer it over low heat until it thickens.
  • Serve the compote warm or cold: Cranberry apple ginger compote can be served warm or cold. It is delicious on its own, or you can use it as a topping for pancakes, waffles, oatmeal, or yogurt.

Conclusion:

Cranberry apple ginger compote is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It is a great way to use up fresh cranberries and apples, and it is also a healthy and tasty snack or breakfast option. Next time you are looking for a simple and flavorful recipe, be sure to give cranberry apple ginger compote a try.
