Berry Compote With Crispy Won Ton Strips And Vanilla Ice Cream Recipes

EASY MIXED BERRY COMPOTE (10-MINUTE RECIPE)

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, add the berries and lemon juice and heat over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes.
• Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat slightly and heat for 2-3 more minutes. Occasionally press the berries, so they release more of their juices (though there's no need to mash them fully).
• Add the maple syrup (or sweetener of your choice) towards the end of the cooking time and stir well. Feel free to adjust the amount of lemon juice/sweetener at any time.
• Remove from the heat and either serve the fruit compote immediately or allow to cool and use later.
