What You Need:

 

1 C dried mixed fruit

1/2 C of raisins

2 C apple juice

1 cinnamon stick

1/4 t of allspice

1 t rum extract

1 T of honey

1 1/2 slices of lemon, peeled

 

How to Make It:

 

Pour the apple juice into the pressure cooker.

Add in the mixed fruit and raisins.

Place the cinnamon stick into the cooker.

Add the allspice, extract and honey.

Lay the lemon slices into the mixture.

Bring the cooker to high pressure and cook 3 minutes.

Quickly release the pressure under cold water and return the cooker to low heat.

Heat the mixture until as thick as you like.

 

This dish can be eaten just like it is or used as a topping for ice cream, yogurt or even vanilla pudding.  A 1/2 C of cranberries, blueberries, cherries can be used in place of the mixed fruit if you prefer.  When cooking with dried fruit in a pressure cooker, only fill the cooker about half full.  Dried fruit will swell during the cooking process and if overfilled can block the vent pipe.
