Instructions

In a medium saucepan, place plums, apple and lemon juice.
Bring to a low simmer covered for 30 minutes. Remove lid and simmer while stirring to reach desired consistency. Some fruits may take longer to thicken if they have a higher water content. Also remember that this will thicken slightly as it cools.
Once desired thickness is achieved, remove from heat and stir in sweetener, 1 Tbsp at a time until it tastes just perfect to you.
Allow to cool, transfer to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth, or desired thickness.
Store in clean mason jar in the fridge for up to two weeks or in the freezer for a several months.
