Fruit compote is a versatile sauce made by cooking fruits in sugar syrup until they are soft and tender.
It can be made with a variety of fruits, including berries, stone fruits like peaches and plums, and even tropical fruits like pineapple.
Compote enhances the natural sweetness of fruits while adding depth with spices like cinnamon, cloves, or vanilla.
It has a chunky texture, with pieces of fruit suspended in a thick, syrupy liquid.
Fruit compote can be served warm or cold, making it a perfect topping for pancakes, waffles, yoghurt, ice cream, or as a filling for pies and tarts
