I'm not a big fan of dried fruit, but this recipe changed my mind. The fruit was so tender and flavorful, I couldn't get enough of it.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover dried fruit. I always have a bag of dried fruit in my pantry and this is a great way to use it up.

The vanilla adds a nice touch of flavor, but I think I'll try adding some other spices next time, like cinnamon or nutmeg.

I love the way the brown sugar caramelizes the fruit. It gives it such a rich and decadent flavor.

The flavor of the fruit was a bit bland. I think I'll add some spices next time.

The dried fruit was a bit too chewy for my taste, but the flavor was great. I'll try cooking it for a shorter amount of time next time.
