Begin by thoroughly washing the rhubarb stalks. Trim off any leaves and dice the stalks into 1-inch pieces.
In a medium saucepan, combine the diced rhubarb, erythritol, water, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and ground cinnamon.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally to ensure the erythritol dissolves completely.
Once simmering, reduce the heat to low and allow the mixture to cook gently for 20-25 minutes. Stir every few minutes to prevent sticking.
The compote is ready when the rhubarb has softened and broken down, and the liquid has thickened slightly.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the compote cool to room temperature. The compote will continue to thicken as it cools.
Transfer the cooled compote to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to a week.
Serve the rhubarb compote cold or warm as desired, topping your favorite low-carb pancakes, yogurt, or even enjoy it on its own.
