Cooked fruits and simmered compotes are among the simplest of French family sweets. While they're usually served with little more than heavy cream, crème fraîche, or plain yogurt, they can also be paired with rice pudding or French toast, moistening the pudding or toast with the poaching syrup and then spooning over the fruit.
