Ingredients

• 2 medium, peeled, cored, and sliced apples
• 2 medium, peeled, cored, and sliced pears
• 1 cup, fresh or canned (drained) pineapple chunks
• 1 cup, halved pitted prunes
• 1 cup orange juice
• 0.5 cup, packed brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 4 units whole cloves

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine sliced apples, sliced pears, pineapple chunks, and halved prunes.

Step 3

In a small saucepan over low heat, combine orange juice, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and whole cloves. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely and the mixture is warm.

Step 4

Pour the warm spiced orange juice mixture over the fruit in the bowl and gently toss to coat the fruit evenly.

Step 5

Transfer the fruit mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it out in an even layer.

Step 6

Dot the top of the fruit mixture with small pieces of the unsalted butter.

Step 7

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

Step 8

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the fruit is tender and the syrup is bubbling.

Step 9

Remove the whole cloves before serving and enjoy the warm fruit compote on its own or as a topping for yogurt, pancakes, or ice cream.
