Prunes in Orange Sauce
Ready In: 15 mins
Serves: 6
Ingredients
- 1 cup orange juice, preferably fresh squeezed
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest, grated (minced fine too)
- 1⁄4 cup honey
- 1⁄2 teaspoon cinnamon (1 cinnamon stick fine too)
- 1⁄4 cup walnuts, chopped
- 24 prunes (unpitted if you can find them)
Directions
- Combine orange and lemon juice, lemon zest, honey, and cinnamon in a medium sized saucepan. Bring to a simmer on high heat and add prunes.
- Turn the heat as low as possible and cover. Simmer gently for only about 10 minutes. Keep an eye on them so prunes don't get soggy. Add chopped walnuts and cook for another couple of minutes.
- Remove prunes with a slotted spoon and turn the heat to medium-high; reduce the liquid to about half. Pour the syrup over the prunes and chill or serve warm. If using cinnamon stick - leave it in the syrup with the prunes.
