Fruit Compote

Cooking Instructions

1. Remove pits from prunes in packages of mixed dried fruit. In 2-1/2- to 3-quart casserole or bowl, place mixed dried fruit. Add hot tap water and cinnamon sticks. Cover with casserole lid or large plate. Cook at HIGH (100% power) 12 to 15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes, until fruit is tender. Stir in kumquats with their syrup, corn syrup, and liqueur.

2. Cover casserole and refrigerate at least 24 hours before serving, to blend flavors. Store fruit in refrigerator to use up within 2 weeks.

3. Serve the fruit compote as is or use as a topping for ice cream or lb cake.
