Looking to add a burst of flavor to your favorite breakfasts and desserts? Say hello to Raspberry Compote! This simple, 2-ingredient<\/strong>, 15-minute<\/strong> berry sauce adds delicious, tart-sweet flavor to everything from cheesecakes<\/a> to pancakes & waffles<\/a>, crepes<\/a>, ice cream<\/a>, and so much more.<\/p>\n

Whether you have an abundance of fresh raspberries or want to make a warm sauce with frozen berries during the cooler months, this recipe has you covered. Let\u2019s dive in and make some raspberry magic!<\/p>\n

What is Compote?<\/h2>\n

Compote<\/a> (the French word for stewed fruit) refers to fruit that\u2019s been cooked until it\u2019s warm and tender. It originated in medieval Europe and was traditionally made by cooking down fruit with water, sweetener, and spices.<\/p>\n

Our inspired, naturally sweetened version is made with raspberries and is about as simple as it gets! It results in a similarly thick stewed fruit mixture in which the raspberry flavor shines.<\/p>\n

How to Make Raspberry Compote<\/h2>\n

This EASY raspberry compote requires just 2 ingredients<\/strong>: raspberries (fresh or frozen) and maple syrup. There\u2019s no need to add water to this compote since the maple syrup provides just enough liquid to get things bubbling.<\/p>\n

\"Pouring<\/figure>\n

The raspberries and maple syrup<\/strong> are heated in a saucepan and mashed<\/strong> with a spoon or potato masher, causing the berries to begin releasing their liquid. <\/p>\n

\"Using<\/figure>\n

After simmering for about 10 minutes<\/strong>, the mixture becomes thicker with an intensified raspberry flavor. A pinch of salt is optional at this point for subtle flavor balance.<\/p>\n

\"Saucepan<\/figure>\n

The final steps thicken the compote even more! While it thickens as it cools, we like to make it even thicker<\/em> (and free from seeds) by passing some (or all) of it through a fine mesh strainer.<\/p>\n

\"Bowls<\/figure>\n

For cheesecakes, a fully smooth and strained compote is nice. For pancakes and waffles, we prefer to strain just half!<\/p>\n
