How to Make Baked Fruit Compote

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare a 2-2 1/2 quart shallow baking dish.
  3. In a medium saucepan, dissolve 1 cup of granulated sugar in 1 cup of dry red wine (like Pinot Noir or Merlot) over medium heat. Stir until sugar is completely dissolved.
  4. In the prepared baking dish, combine 1 cup of dried cranberries, 1 cup of dried apricots, 1 (15 ounce) can of sliced peaches, drained, and 1/2 cup of chopped pecans (optional).
  5. Pour the wine and sugar mixture over the fruit. Stir gently to coat all the fruit evenly.
  6. Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil.
  7. Bake for 1 hour, or until most of the liquid is absorbed and the fruit is tender. Check halfway through and stir gently.
  8. Remove from oven and uncover. Let cool completely before transferring to a serving dish.
  9. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and deepen.
