Whether you are trying to reduce refined sugar, cut unhealthy fats, or simply make healthier recipes, Prune Purée can enhance cakes, cookies, muffins, savory sauces, and more. Our friend Meg from This Mess Is Ours shared the easiest way to make prune puree, so you can keep this versatile ingredient on hand regularly. The only question left is: will you be making naturally sweetened Teriyaki Sauce or a Chocolate Mug Cake first?

Chef Kate Ramos shared a version of this traditional holiday sweet that was loaded with California grown prunes and nuts in a cooking class, and we were hooked. Serve this homemade panforte as a treat by itself, or add it to a cheeseboard for a sweet option that pairs beautifully with cheese and fruit, wine or coffee. Since this panforte recipe is naturally gluten-free, it’s something everyone can enjoy.
