Pressure Cooker Apple-Pear Compote image

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
