I can’t believe I didn’t like this as a child! It cooks down to a sweet, tart, spicy sauce that can be eaten alone, mixed with oatmeal, served over ice cream, or to accompany pork. My daughter even spreads it on toast.

  • ½ cup white sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground cloves
