Categories     Breakfast     Condiment     Dessert     Side

Time 7m

Number Of Ingredients 3

1.5 cups mixed berries (or individual berries (blueberry, raspberry, etc.), if preferred)
1 Tbsp maple syrup (or other sweetener (can be increased/decreased, to taste))

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, add the berries and lemon juice and heat over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat slightly and heat for 2-3 more minutes. Occasionally press the berries, so they release more of their juices (though there's no need to mash them fully).

  • Remove from the heat and either serve the fruit compote immediately or allow to cool and use later.
