Measuring Cups
Measuring Spoons
Spatula
- ½ cup Cherries frozen
- ½ cup Raspberries frozen
- 2 tbsp Sugar
- ½ Zest of an orange
- ½ orange juiced
Place frozen cherries and berries into a pot or frying pan over high heat, until juices start to release. Stir occasionally.
Add sugar and zest, and stir.
Once the mixture begins to thicken, add orange juice and bring to a gentle boil. Reduce heat to low and thicken for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. The compote will thicken as it cools so don’t over thicken in the pan.
Remove from heat and pour into a bowl to cool completely. Serve warm or place in the fridge to chill.
*You can do whatever fruit you’d like (for the most part), it should just measure out to 100g total.
