About Prunes in syrup

Prunes in syrup is a delightful preserved fruit dish made by simmering dried plums (prunes) in a sweetened liquid, often containing sugar, water, and sometimes spices like cinnamon or vanilla. This dish originates from various European cuisines, commonly found in traditional desserts or as a topping for baked goods and cereals. Prunes are rich in dietary fiber, which supports digestive health, and they contain antioxidants like phenolic compounds that may help combat oxidative stress. Additionally, they are a source of essential vitamins and minerals, including potassium and vitamin K. However, the syrup adds significant sugars, increasing calorie content and making moderation key for those watching their sugar intake. This versatile treat offers a satisfying balance of natural sweetness and health benefits, making it popular both as a snack and a gourmet ingredient.
