Plum Cherry Compote
Description
This Plum Cherry Compote brings together small plums and cherries, pitted to remove stones, simmered gently with honey and water. The gentle boil and 15-minute simmer soften the fruit, causing it to release juices that combine with the honey for a naturally sweetened syrup. This compote balances the tartness of the cherries and plums with the smooth sweetness of honey.
Once cooled, the compote can be served as a topping for yogurt, pancakes, or desserts, or enjoyed on its own as a fresh fruit preserve. The straightforward process and minimal ingredients highlight the natural flavors of the seasonal fruit.

- 2 Tablespoon honey
- 1/4 cup water
