Fighting and healing cancer with fruit Apple and Plum Compote with Vanilla Custard This was so easy and delicious! To cut the calories, next time I will only use half the amount of sugar in the custard, blackberries peaches recipes

Ingredients
Compote
12 prune plums, or 8 red or black plums, pitted and chopped
1/3 cup apple cider
1/4 cup sugar, or
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 large apples, such as Mutsu (Crispin), Fuji or Gala
Custard
1 1/2 cups 1% milk, divided
1/4 cup sugar, or
1 tablespoon cornstarch
Pinch of salt
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preparation
To prepare compote: Combine plums, cider, 1/4 cup sugar (or Splenda) and cinnamon in a medium saucepan; bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the plums are soft and falling apart, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat. Peel and grate apples. Stir the grated apples into the plums. Spoon the compote into a large bowl and chill in the refrigerator.
To prepare custard: Heat 1 cup milk in a saucepan over medium heat until steaming; do not boil. Mix 1/4 cup sugar (or Splenda), cornstarch and salt in a medium bowl. Add eggs and whisk until smooth. Whisk in the remaining 1/2 cup cold milk. Add the heated milk to the egg mixture, whisking constantly. Return the mixture to the saucepan. Cook over low heat, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in vanilla. Transfer the custard to a clean bowl and let cool slightly or refrigerate until chilled.
To serve, spoon custard into dessert dishes and top each with compote.

Tips & Notes
Make Ahead Tip: Refrigerate compote and custard in separate containers for up to 2 days.
Ingredient Note: In the EatingWell Test Kitchen, sucralose is the only alternative sweetener we test with when we feel the option is appropriate. For nonbaking recipes, we use Splenda Granular (boxed, not in a packet). For baking, we use Splenda Sugar Blend for Baking, a mix of sugar and sucralose. It can be substituted in recipes (1/2 cup of the blend for each 1 cup of sugar) to reduce sugar calories by half while maintaining some of the baking properties of sugar. If you make a similar blend with half sugar and half Splenda Granular, substitute this homemade mixture cup for cup.
 When choosing any low- or no-calorie sweetener, be sure to check the label to make sure it is suitable for your intended use.
