Perfect for cold weather! An excellent brunch dish or side for waffles, pancakes, scones, or shortbread. Also great served warm over vanilla ice cream! For best results, use canned fruits that do not have corn syrup or other sweeteners added. Add up to 1/2 cup more brown sugar for a sweeter dish. Virgin coconut oil can be used in place of the butter.
