( And I don't care that the companies who make prunes got together a few years ago and decided to call prunes "dried plums." The dried plums I make don't taste anything like their packaged product, so I still call their product prunes!) The Surprising Health Benefits of Dried Plumsĭried plums are a good source of fiber, antioxidants, and contain psyllium for digestive health, among other things.īut more important than those benefits are the current studies that have shown that eating dried plums daily can have an impact on bone health. They don't have that off-putting wet, squishy texture, smell, or that distinctive prune-like flavor.Įveryone who tastes them agrees, too - these are not like store-bought prunes.
Oh, I know what you're thinking, "Is she talking about prunes?"Īll I can say is that while they are technically prunes, they are also NOT prunes - not the store-bought prunes we all think of. While the dried plums might not look like much, they have a wonderful sweet-tart flavor with a nice chewy (not wet) texture that makes a perfect snack that my kids have loved as much as I do. Of all the fruits I preserve, whether by freezing, canning, or drying, dried plums are my absolute favorite.
