Description

This Mixed Berry Compote is juicy, sweet, and is a great topping on baked goods. My favorite way to eat this, is with my Fluffy, Vegan Spelt Pancakes. All you need to make this Mixed Berry Compote are 5 ingredients, and a saucepan.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cup frozen mixed berries
  • 1 lemon or lime, squeezed
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp cornstarch + 1 tbsp of water (adjust to your preferred thickness)

Instructions

  1. Add all ingredients to a saucepan, except the cornstarch mixture.
  2. Let mixture come to a boil over medium to high heat, stirring to prevent sticking. For frozen fruit this will take 7-10 minutes, for fresh fruit it will take 5 minutes.
  3. Once boiled, reduce the heat to a simmer, and continue to stir. Allow the mixture to reduce in liquid. Once you have your preferred viscosity (how runny or thick you want the sauce to be), add cornstarch. If you used fresh fruit, you may not need to add cornstarch as the natural pectins have thickened the compote.
  4. Remove from heat and let sit.  Sauce will thicken as it cools. Then serve.
