How to make

  1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.
  2. Place the plums cut-side up in a shallow baking dish. Add the pears and apple chunks then pour over the cranberry juice and drizzle with honey. Push the vanilla and cinnamon among the fruit.
  3. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
  4. Remove the foil, turn the fruit over and return to the oven, uncovered, for a further 30 minutes, basting occasionally, until the fruit is tender.
  5. Using a slotted spoon, lift out the fruit and place in a heatproof dish. Discard the vanilla and cinnamon.
  6. Strain the cooking juices into a small saucepan and bring to the boil. Boil for about 5 minutes or until reduced by half. Pour over the fruit and leave to cool completely, then cover and chill until ready to serve. Enjoy on its own or serve with yoghurt, or spoon over breakfast cereal or warm pancakes.
