Autumn Glory® is reminiscent of fall with notes of caramel and cinnamon. This chutney embodies those flavors and creates a fall-like flavor with seasonal spices, fresh and dried fruit, and nuts. The chutney is easy to make ahead of time and simply assemble before a holiday party.

- 2 cups raisins and/or dried cranberries
