Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh raspberries
- 3 medium ripe peaches
- 0.25 cups granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons water
- 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
Wash the raspberries under cold water and set them aside to drain.
Peel the peaches. To make peeling easier, blanch them by placing them in boiling water for 30 seconds, then transferring them to an ice water bath. The skins should slip off easily.
Slice the peeled peaches into thin wedges or small cubes, discarding the pits.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the peaches, raspberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and water.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir gently to combine the ingredients.
Allow the mixture to come to a simmer, stirring occasionally. As the fruit softens, use a spoon to mash it slightly, leaving some chunks for texture.
Cook the compote for about 10-15 minutes, or until the fruit has broken down and the mixture has thickened slightly.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Let the compote cool slightly before serving or transferring to a storage container.
Serve warm or at room temperature over pancakes, yogurt, ice cream, or store in the refrigerator for up to one week.
