Fruit spread is a sweet, flavorful condiment made primarily from crushed or pureed fruits, sugar, and sometimes natural pectin for thickening. Commonly used in European-style cuisines, fruit spreads can be found in breakfasts, desserts, or even savory pairings with cheese and meats. Unlike traditional jams or jellies, fruit spreads often have less sugar and more fruit content, making them a slightly healthier alternative. They are rich in vitamins and antioxidants derived from the fruits, such as vitamin C and potassium. However, some varieties still contain added sugars or preservatives, which should be consumed in moderation. Versatile and delicious, they can be used as a topping for bread or pancakes, or incorporated into recipes for added flavor. For a healthier option, look for spreads labeled "no added sugar" or ones made with whole fruits.
