Ingredients for Apple Raisin Soup

  • Apple Juice
  • Cooking Apples
  • 1 cup raisins
  • Cinnamon Sticks
  • Brown Sugar
  • 2 tablespoons brandy (optional)

How to Make Apple Raisin Soup

  1. In a 2-quart saucepan, combine the diced apples, raisins, water, and cinnamon stick.
  2. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the apples are tender.
  3. Remove from heat and carefully remove the cinnamon stick.
  4. Stir in the brandy and sugar. If desired, gently heat until the sugar is completely dissolved. Taste and adjust sweetness as needed.
  5. Allow the soup to cool completely. For a smoother texture, carefully blend the soup using an immersion blender or a regular blender until desired consistency is reached. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to chill thoroughly before serving.
  6. Serve chilled. Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a few extra raisins, if desired.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
