Instructions

  1. Dice the peaches then add them, the maple syrup, and the lemon juice to a small pot.
  2. Bring the pot to a simmer of medium-high heat. Continue to simmer the peaches, uncovered and stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. The peaches should be soft but still in distinct pieces and the liquid starting to thicken a little - it will thicken more as it cools. If you'd prefer more of a sauce, continue to simmer the peaches until they've broken down as much as you'd like.
  3. Let the peaches cool slightly before you serve them. Or transfer the hot peach compote to sterilized jars for canning. This compote will keep well for up to 5 days in your fridge.

Notes

  • We prefer not to peel the peaches, which makes a wonderfully rustic compote. If you want to peel the peaches, cut a shallow X at the bottom of each peach then put them into a pot of boiling water for one minute. After a minute, scoop them out and put them in a bowl of cold water. Once they're cool, the skin will peel off easily. 
  • If you're planning on canning this compote, make sure to peel the peaches as the skin will turn an unpleasant dark color over time.
