APPLE COMPOTE
Posted on November 22, 2012 by Francesca Lanni
This is a delicious dessert. Those which usually tend to be simple and easy to make, are always my favourite, like the apple compote. Everyone can make it at home. Apple is a versatile fruit and apple compôte is great. Use up a glut of apples, and make a delicious breakfast or healthy dessert. Kids love it, grown-ups love it. Serving it chilled or warm is great, sprinkled with some toasted almonds and raisins make it even better.
Ingredients: 100g unsalted butter, 750g Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and chopped, 100g caster sugar, 1 vanilla pod split.
Preparation and method: Place the butter in a stainless steel saucepan and start to melt. Add the apples, sugar and vanilla pod. Cook out the apple to a compote, stirring from time to time for approximately 30 minutes on a moderate heat. If the texture is too runny then leave to reduce until you have a thick texture. Remove the vanilla pod, and reserve for use later. Place the apple compote into a blender, blend to a fine pulp and pass through a fine sieve. Serve.
