This recipe is delicious but, best of all, it’s a healthier version of traditional comfort food. It’s filled with the many benefits that come with dried fruit, such as fibre, vitamins and antioxidants.
This spiced fruit mix is super versatile, you can use it as a great addition to all kinds of desserts or as a quick snack.
It stores well in the fridge for up a month. It is best consumed after a few days, as this way the fruit has the time to absorbe the liquid and flavor.
I made this just a week ago and I have almost used it all…sprat on my morning toast, as filling for cakes…I love it!
Give this a try!
