Steps:
- In a large saucepan, mix together dried apricots, brown sugar, lemon peel, cinnamon stick, and unsweetened apple juice or cider; bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Transfer mixture to a large dish or bowl; and mix in dried pitted prunes, dried tart cherries, and vanilla extract. Allow compote to cool completely; then remove lemon peel and cinnamon stick, cover, and refrigerate for at least 24 hours--or up to a week (compote thickens, and flavor develops, during fridge time).
- Stir compote before serving.
