Please read on for a delicious recipe from the Author:

This easy and delicious, gluten-free dessert is a new family favorite. It’s low in sugar—well, if you don’t use the caramel sauce, and full of flavor. We think of apples and pears for fall, but with the cider and citrus juices, this apple and pear compote makes a wonderful spring dish.

Apple, Pear Compote

Compote Ingredients:

1 Honey Crisp Apple

1 Granny Smith

1 Bartlett Pear

2 T Butter

4 oz  (or just under ½ cup) of Finn River Solstice Saffron Hard Cider (the alcohol burns off during cooking)

1 t Honey

½ t Vanilla Paste

¼ t Cinnamon

1/8 t Nutmeg

1/8 t Ginger

½ t Lemon Juice

½ t Blood Orange Juice

Caramel sauce

• Wash, peel, and dice the apples and Pear. Brown two tablespoons of butter in a medium sauce pan over medium heat. Add the cider, honey, vanilla paste, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, lemon juice, and blood orange juice to the sauce pan and bring to medium high heat. When the liquid reaches a boil add the diced fruit. Stir on medium high heat for two minutes, then reduce to low heat and let simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated.
• Serve compote with your favorite topping. We love caramel sauce drizzled over the top. It would be great with ice cream, whipped cream, in a crepe or as pie filling.
