Best 8 Raspberry Cherry Compote 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.

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.

EASY RASPBERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• Place the raspberries, maple syrup, vanilla, Cointreau, and water in a saucepan. Heat over medium heat. When it starts to bubble rapidly, stir constantly for 1 to 2 minutes until thickened and the fruit breaks down.
• Reduce the heat until raspberries bubble at a low simmer. Cook 10 to 12 minutes until thickened and broken down. Serve warm or refrigerate until serving (store refrigerated up to 1 week).

CHERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• Combine cherries, sugar, and cornstarch in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat slightly and simmer until mixture becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and stir in lemon juice. Let cool to room temperature before serving, 30 minutes to 1 hour. Store in the refrigerator.

CHERRY AND RASPBERRY COMPOTE RECIPE

Steps:

• Pour 4 tbsp water into a pan and add the cherries, sugar and lemon juice. Place the pan over a medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Cook the cherries over a low heat for about 5-10 mins, until they have released some juices but aren't overcooked.
• Add the raspberries to the pan and cook for a further 1-2 mins, until they've started to soften. Remove the pan from the heat and leave the mixture to cool, then chill it well before serving with Greek yogurt.

RASPBERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• Bring water to boil.
• Add raspberries and sugar.
• Allow to boil until desired thickness, 25-45 minutes.
• If compote is not thick enough and a cornstarch and water slurry.
• Serve over ice cream, pancakes, or waffles.
• May use strawberries, blueberries, peaches, mangoes, or apples, or a combination in place of raspberries.

QUICK FRUIT COMPOTE

Steps:

• If using strawberries, hull, halve or quarter to make them a similar size to the other berries. Tip all the fruits into a large pan with 2-3 tbsp water, sugar to taste and your choice of flavourings.
• Bring to the boil then simmer for 3-5 mins. Don't overcook, or the fruits will not hold their shape. Keeps in the fridge for up to 2 days, in the freezer for up to 3 months.

CRANBERRY-CHERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• Bring cranberries, cherries, brown sugar, cider, and pepper to a boil over high heat in a medium saucepan. Cook 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, then stir in bourbon. Reduce heat, bring to a simmer, and cook, stirring often and pushing fruit against the side of the pan with the back of a wooden spoon to break apart slightly, until thick and syrupy, about 25 minutes more. Let cool completely.
• Do Ahead
• Sauce can be made 5 days ahead; cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before serving.
