Ingredients

Medium apples, peeled, cored, and finely chopped 3

Walnuts, finely chopped 1.5 Cup

Sweet red wine 1/2 Cup

Honey 1/4 Cup

Ground cinnamon 1 Tsp

Ground cloves (optional) 1/4 Tsp

A pinch of salt

Instructions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the finely chopped apples and walnuts.

Step 2

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the sweet red wine, honey, ground cinnamon, ground cloves (if using), and a pinch of salt.

Step 3

Pour the wine mixture over the apple and walnut mixture, stirring well to ensure all the ingredients are evenly coated.

Step 4

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the Haroset for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight. This will allow the flavors to meld and the mixture to thicken.

Step 5

Before serving, give the Haroset a good stir to redistribute any liquid that may have settled at the bottom of the bowl.

Step 6

Serve the Haroset as a part of your Seder plate or alongside matzo for a delicious and symbolic Passover treat.
