Rhubarb Vanilla Compote


Been seeing lots of rhubarb lately, and this is a tasty twist on it. Vanilla and cinnamon add subtle flavor to this quick rhubarb compote. Serve warm or cold, wrapped in crepes or over ice cream.

Ingredients
  • 4 cups diced rhubarb
  • 1/2 cup sugar (There are also several natural sugar substitutes, such as stevia and agave)
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Directions
  1. Combine rhubarb, sugar and cinnamon in a medium saucepan.
  2. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat; reduce heat to a gentle simmer and cook until the rhubarb begins to break down, about 5 minutes.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.

Yield: 4 servings, 1/2 cup each
