Raspberry Cherry Compote Recipes

Steps:

• Combine cherries, sugar, and cornstarch in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat slightly and simmer until mixture becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and stir in lemon juice. Let cool to room temperature before serving, 30 minutes to 1 hour. Store in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Bring cranberries, cherries, brown sugar, cider, and pepper to a boil over high heat in a medium saucepan. Cook 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, then stir in bourbon. Reduce heat, bring to a simmer, and cook, stirring often and pushing fruit against the side of the pan with the back of a wooden spoon to break apart slightly, until thick and syrupy, about 25 minutes more. Let cool completely.
• Do Ahead
• Sauce can be made 5 days ahead; cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before serving.

Steps:

• Bring water to boil.
• Add raspberries and sugar.
• Allow to boil until desired thickness, 25-45 minutes.
• If compote is not thick enough and a cornstarch and water slurry.
• Serve over ice cream, pancakes, or waffles.
• May use strawberries, blueberries, peaches, mangoes, or apples, or a combination in place of raspberries.

Steps:

• If using strawberries, hull, halve or quarter to make them a similar size to the other berries. Tip all the fruits into a large pan with 2-3 tbsp water, sugar to taste and your choice of flavourings.
• Bring to the boil then simmer for 3-5 mins. Don't overcook, or the fruits will not hold their shape. Keeps in the fridge for up to 2 days, in the freezer for up to 3 months.
