RECIPE ⬇️
Homemade fillings are so much better than canned, and strawberry filling is so simple to make
Strawberry Compote
Ingredients:
• 3 cups of diced strawberries
• ½ cup of granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon/lime juice
• 2 tablespoons of corn starch
• 1½ tablespoons of water
Instructions:
1. Wash, dry, and dice the strawberries into small pieces.
2. In a medium size sauce pan, add strawberries and sugar.
Mix and heat over medium heat for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. While the strawberries are simmering, in a small bowl, add the corn starch and water, mixing together to make a paste.
4. After the 8 minutes, pour the corn starch slurry into the strawberries and mix. Heat for an additional 3 minutes.
5. Take the pot off the heat, and add lemon juice and stir. Pour the compote into a fridge-safe dish, and let it cool on the counter completely.
6. Cover the dish and refrigerate overnight.
7. Enjoy as a cake filling, on pancakes, or in yogurt bowls.
