Instructions

  1. Place juice, cranberries and cinnamon in a large saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to the boil. Add pears and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, covered with a round of baking paper, for 5 minutes.
  2. Add apples and simmer, covered with a round of baking paper, for 5–6 minutes or until tender. Remove and discard cinnamon. Using a slotted spoon, transfer apples and pears to serving bowls.

Notes

The cooking time will depend on the ripeness of your fruit. Take care with the apples as they can disintegrate quickly when overcooked.
