Baked Winter Fruit Compote

A lovely trio of seasonal fruit—fresh cranberries, pears, and grapes—creates an easy, chunky compote that works well in both sweet and savory dishes. It’s delicious spooned over oatmeal or yogurt, or draped over angel food cake or ice cream. You can also enjoy it as an accompaniment to ham, pork tenderloin, or roast chicken, where its tangy-sweet flavor goes perfectly with the meat. Or chop the baked mixture into finer pieces, and spread it onto a turkey or ham sandwich. Serve it chilled or at room temperature.
