Fruit Compote With Honey Yogurt Recipes

EASY FRUIT COMPOTE

Steps:

• To prepare the fruit: If you're using fresh strawberries or peaches, cut them into thin slices. If you're using small berries like blueberries or raspberries, you can use them whole. If you're using frozen fruit, no need to defrost or slice them before using.
• In a medium saucepan, combine your fruit of choice, sweetener of choice and dash of salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. This will take about 5 minutes for fresh fruit or 10 minutes for frozen fruit.
• Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium. If you're using chunky fruit or prefer a smoother consistency, mash the fruit with a potato masher or serving fork until it reaches your desired consistency. Continue simmering, stirring often, until the compote has condensed to about half of its original volume, about 5 minutes.
• Remove the compote from the heat. I'm generally satisfied with my compote at this point, but if the compote isn't sweet enough for your liking, you can stir in a more sweetener, to taste. If you'd like it to be more smooth, mash it some more.
• Let the compote cool for a few minutes before serving. Allow leftover compote to cool completely before covering and refrigerating for up to 10 days.

CHERRY COMPOTE WITH HONEY YOGURT RECIPE

Steps:

• Bring cherries, currants, and sugar to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook until fruit is tender and juices are thick enough to coat a spoon, 8-12 minutes. (Fish out lemon zest if using.)

BAKED YOGURT WITH TROPICAL FRUIT COMPOTE

Steps:

• For the baked yogurt: Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.

Divide the sour cream mixture evenly among the ramekins and bake until just set, about 20 minutes. Refrigerate until chilled, at least 30 minutes.
• For the tropical fruit compote: Combine the pineapple, mango puree, dried mango, dried papaya, bananas, brown sugar, granulated sugar and vanilla seeds in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, lower to a simmer and cook until the juices are thick and the fruit is translucent, about 30 minutes. Cool until warm, 20 to 30 minutes.
• To serve: Top each baked yogurt with a heaping spoon of the tropical fruit compote and an edible flower and serve.
