Apricot and prune compote

Description

The recipe won't take much time. Prunes are very beneficial for gastrointestinal issues, and dried apricots are good for the cardiovascular system. Therefore, a compote made from these dried fruits is an excellent source of vitamins and other beneficial nutrients. Plus, it tastes great! I add a bit of raisins when preparing compote from apricots and prunes to make it a little sweeter.
