Fruit Compote

Breakfast Fruit Compote This fruit compote is made with a generous mix of prunes, apples, raisins and oranges. Served chilled, this fruit recipe is a nice addition to add color and flavor to your breakfast or brunch table.

The warm bright inviting colors of the fruits are eye catching and add that needed punch of color when you are serving a special brunch menu. A hint of cinnamon adds a deep rich flavor to the fruit juices.

This fruit recipe is wonderful for a holiday brunch menu, but tastes great any time of year. You can also try my recipe for hot fruit compote.
