2 tablespoons white sugar
1 tablespoon orange marmalade
2 tablespoons chopped candied orange peel
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, or to taste

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Instead of prunes you can use any other dried fruit like figs or apricots, or a mix of all three.
