How to Make Low Fat Fruit Compote

  1. Combine 1 cup dried fruit (such as cranberries, apricots, cherries, or a mix!), 1/2 cup water, 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and a pinch of cinnamon in a large saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, then reduce heat to low.
  3. Cover the saucepan and let it simmer gently for 45-60 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the fruit is very soft and the compote has thickened to your desired consistency. The longer it simmers, the more pudding-like it will become.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving warm or chilled.
