Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams rhubarb stalks
- 120 milliliters water
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoons stevia or monk fruit sweetener
Instructions
Wash the rhubarb stalks thoroughly and trim off the ends. Cut the stalks into 1-inch pieces.
In a medium saucepan, add the rhubarb pieces and water. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Once simmering, reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover the saucepan and let the rhubarb cook for about 10 minutes, or until the rhubarb starts breaking down and becomes soft. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Stir in the lemon juice, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Mix well to combine all the flavors.
Add the stevia or monk fruit sweetener to the compote. Stir well, ensuring that the sweetener is fully dissolved and incorporated. Adjust the amount of sweetener to taste if necessary.
Continue cooking uncovered on low heat for an additional 5-10 minutes, stirring frequently, until the compote reaches your desired consistency. The compote will thicken as it cools.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let it cool slightly.
Serve the compote warm or chilled. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
