- Place the apples, pears, peaches, apple juice, water and mixed spice in a heavy-based saucepan. Set the pan over a high heat and bring the fruit mixture to the boil, stirring occasionally.
- Reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes or until the mixture is reduced to a pulp and no liquid is visible on the surface. Stir frequently to prevent the mixture from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Remove the pan from the heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly. Taste the mixture and stir in the lemon juice if it is too sweet.
- Transfer the fruit mixture to a food processor or blender and process to a thick purée.
- Leave to cool completely before serving. The spread can be kept, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
