Healthy Strawberry Rhubarb Compote (Vegan and Refined Sugar Free)
Ingredients
- 1 ⅓ cup rhubarb
- 2 cups strawberries I used frozen and it was about 320 g
- 1 ½ - 2 tbsp chia seeds optional
- 2-3 tbsp whole cane sugar or coconut sugar. adjust to your taste
Instructions
- Chop the rhubarb in small pieces, approx 1 cm pieces.
- Add rhubarb to a medium sized saucepan on medium heat. If you're using frozen strawberries, you can add them now as well, but if you're using fresh strawberries wait for the rhubarb to get a bit soft before adding the strawberries since they don't take as long to soften. Let it simmer and let the liquid reduce.
- Once the fruit has softened a bit, add the sugar and use a potato masher to mash the strawberries and rhubarb down to the desired consistency.
- When the compote has become completely soft, taste the compote (let it cool first on a spoon!) and adjust sweetness if needed. Add the optional chia seeds.
- Remove the compote from the heat. And let it cool before storing in an airtight container in the fridge. Enjoy!
