Sugar Plums
- 1/4 cups Pitted Dates
- 1/4 cups Dried Cherries
- 1/2 cups Toasted Pecans
- 1/2 cups Toasted Walnuts
- 1/2 cups Dried Figs
- 1/2 cups Dried Apple
- 1/2 cups Dried Apricots
- 1 Tablespoon Candied Ginger
- 1 Tablespoon Orange Zest
- 2 Tablespoons Orange Juice, As Needed
- 1. Put all of the ingredients in a food processor.
- 2. Pulse until it's minced evenly.
- 3. Add orange juice as needed to bind everything together.
- 4. Roll into 1" balls and roll in sugar.
- 5. Set out to dry for a bit, about an hour or so.
- Note: I suggest making a small batch first and then adjusting your ingredients to taste. Sugar Plums, I would say, don't taste like any other common dessert, and this is a very traditional recipe. Try adding in a third type of nut, or switching the apples for something like dried pears if you are looking to adjust the flavor.
