Categories     Dessert

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 pound (16 ounces) fresh or frozen fruit (for the photos, I used fresh strawberries, peaches, and frozen blueberries)
2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
Dash of salt
See optional flavoring ideas given above recipe

Steps:

  • To prepare the fruit: If you're using fresh strawberries or peaches, cut them into thin slices. If you're using small berries like blueberries or raspberries, you can use them whole. If you're using frozen fruit, no need to defrost or slice them before using.
  • In a medium saucepan, combine your fruit of choice, sweetener of choice and dash of salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. This will take about 5 minutes for fresh fruit or 10 minutes for frozen fruit.
  • Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium. If you're using chunky fruit or prefer a smoother consistency, mash the fruit with a potato masher or serving fork until it reaches your desired consistency. Continue simmering, stirring often, until the compote has condensed to about half of its original volume, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove the compote from the heat. I'm generally satisfied with my compote at this point, but if the compote isn't sweet enough for your liking, you can stir in a more sweetener, to taste. If you'd like it to be more smooth, mash it some more.
  • Let the compote cool for a few minutes before serving. Allow leftover compote to cool completely before covering and refrigerating for up to 10 days.

FRESH FRUIT COMPOTE WITH HOME-MADE GRANOLA



Fresh Fruit Compote With Home-Made Granola image

Make and share this Fresh Fruit Compote With Home-Made Granola recipe from Food.com.

Provided by hectorthebat

Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

300 ml apple juice
150 g oats
15 g almonds
50 g mixed fruit
2 apples
4 plums
75 g sugar
200 g raspberries
200 g blackberries
200 g strawberries
6 tablespoons yoghurt

Steps:

  • To make the granola, preheat the oven to 180C/Fan 160C/Gas 4. Line a large baking tray with baking parchment.
  • Pour the apple juice into a medium saucepan and bring to the boil. Continue boiling until the liquid has reduced by 2/3, and is syrupy. It's really important to get this bit right, as the apple syrup needs to be thick enough to lightly coat the oats.
  • Add the oats and almonds to the pan with the apple syrup and stir until well combined. Tip everything on to the baking tray and spread out thinly. Bake in the centre of the oven for 15 minutes.
  • Take the tray out of the oven and scatter the dried fruit over the top. Turn and mix everything with a spatula or spoon and put the tray back in the oven for another 5 minutes or until the oats are crisp and lightly golden. Remove from the oven and leave to cool on the tray, then tip the granola into an airtight tin or jar. This mixture is best eaten within 2 weeks.
  • To make the compote, preheat the oven to 190C/Fan 170C/Gas 5. Peel the apples and cut them into quarters. Remove the cores and slice the apples thinly. Put the apples with the plums and half the sugar in a shallow ovenproof dish - a lasagne dish is ideal. Cover loosely with a sheet of foil and bake for 30 minutes.
  • Take the dish out of the oven and add the whole berry fruits to the dish. Sprinkle with the remaining sugar and toss lightly together. Cover with foil and return to the oven for a further 15 minutes or until the fruit is soft and juicy but still holding its shape - it will continue to cook once you've taken it out of the oven. Leave the compote to cool, then tip it into a bowl and cover with cling film. It will keep in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Serve the compote in bowls, topped with a couple of spoonfuls of the granola and some low-fat yoghurt if you like.

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

Zabaglione
1 cup dry Champagne or other sparkling wine
3/4 cup powdered sugar
5 large egg yolks

1 pear, peeled, cored, diced
6 tablespoons chilled dry Champagne
6 whole strawberries

Steps:

  • For zabaglione:
  • Whisk Champagne, sugar, yolks and corn syrup in large metal bowl to blend. Set bowl over saucepan of simmering water (do not allow bottom of bowl to touch water). Whisk constantly until mixture has tripled in volume and candy thermometer registers 160°F., about 10 minutes. Remove from over water. Using electric mixer, beat zabaglione until completely cool, about 5 minutes.

  • Melt half the butter in a non-stick skillet or sauce pan on medium heat (don’t let the butter get brown!). I like to use my Le Creuset dutch oven when cooking a bigger batch to ensure an even heat distribution.
  • Reduce the heat, add in the remaining butter and lemon or lime zest stirring frequently. The butter adds a wonderfully rich taste to the fruit – be generous with the butter!
