STEWED PRUNES



Stewed Prunes image

I have eaten prunes this way as long as I can remember in my family. My grandmother made stewed prunes this way, my mother did, and I do too. Simple and delicious and taste so nice. Enjoy on their own, or on your breakfast cereal, or with ice cream, or mixed with other fruit.

SIMPLE STEWED PRUNES



Simple Stewed Prunes image

This recipe is so simple I hate to post it however there isn't one on Recipezaar even close so here goes. I have posted 1 cup of water however if your prunes are large you want to have the water at least 1/4" above the prunes. I don't use sugar but it may be added.

MY GRANDMA'S NATURAL REMEDY FOR CONSTIPATION (STEWED PRUNES)



My Grandma's Natural Remedy for Constipation (Stewed Prunes) image

My sweet grandma used stewed prunes as a natural laxative, but my mom likes to eat them as a simple and healthy dessert because slow simmering softens and thickens dried plums into a sweet syrupy goodness. Healthier than taking Ex-lax.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 31m

Yield 15 stewed prunes, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

15 pitted prunes (dried plums)
1 1/2 cups water
1 -2 tablespoon orange juice (optional)
milk, as desired (optional)

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, place prunes, water, and orange juice. Bring to boil, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes.
  • Prunes will absorb most of the water, and the remaining water will thicken into a consistency of syrup. If there is a lot of liquid remaining, simmer, uncovered, for a few minutes until sauce reduces.
  • Transfer hot prunes and syrup to a bowl. Pour cold milk over the prunes to cover. Eat with a spoon.
  • HINT: This remedy should work within 24 hours and can be safely eaten as often and as long as needed.
  • NOTE: If you do not have constipation and just like the taste of stewed prunes, you may add 1/8 teaspoon of ground cinnamon to the prunes mixture before cooking (Cinnamon, oranges, and prunes pair well together.) However, do not add the cinnamon if you are using this for constipation because cinnamon is used as a natural cure for diarrhea and will have the opposite effect of a laxative.
  • One cup prunes contains 1274 mg of potassium, which prevents muscle cramps, and 12 grams of fiber to relieve constipation.

  • Place the prunes and lemon half in a non-reactive pot over medium-high heat. Drizzle with the maple syrup and add enough water to just cover the fruit. Bring to a boil.
  • Cover and turn the heat down to low, and simmer gently for about 30 to 35 minutes, turning the prunes every so often, adding water if they look too dry. The liquid will be syrupy and the prunes will have softened and swelled up when ready.
  • Remove from the heat and let the prunes cool. Transfer to a container. They will keep refrigerated for up to a week, if they last that long! Eat them as is, or with a dollop of Greek yogurt.
