Ingredients
- 2 cups ripe loquats (peeled, seeded, and halved)
- ½ cup sugar (adjust to taste)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- ¼ cup water
- Optional: a pinch of cinnamon or ginger for extra flavor
Instructions
- Prepare the loquats: Peel the loquats, remove the seeds, and cut them in halves.
- Cook the fruit: In a saucepan, combine loquats, sugar, lemon juice, and water.
- Simmer: Cook over medium heat for about 15–20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the fruit becomes soft and syrupy.
- Mash or blend: For a smooth texture, mash with a spoon or blend into a puree.
- Serve: Enjoy warm over toast, pancakes, or yogurt — or chill and use as a fruit jam!
