Wash the rhubarb stalks thoroughly under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel.
Trim the ends of each stalk and cut the rhubarb into 1-inch pieces.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the rhubarb, water, erythritol, and salt.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally to help dissolve the erythritol.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and let simmer for 15 minutes, or until the rhubarb becomes very soft and starts to break down, stirring occasionally.
Uncover and stir in the vanilla extract, lemon juice, and ground cinnamon.
Allow the compote to simmer uncovered for an additional 5 minutes, or until slightly thickened to your desired consistency.
Taste and adjust sweetness or seasoning if necessary, adding more erythritol for sweetness or lemon juice for extra tanginess.
Remove from heat and let the compote cool for a few minutes before transferring it to a serving dish or an airtight container.
Serve warm, or refrigerate until chilled. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to a week.
