Instructions
- In a mason jar or container, combine all the first set of ingredients and mix well.

- Increase heat to medium-high to bring to a boil and cook for about 5-8 minutes, stirring often.
- Allow the compote to cool and thicken, taste and adjust sweetness if needed.

- This recipe can be easily doubled to serve more people.
- Chia seeds help thicken the compote and add nutritional value.
