Strawberry Compote

Ingredients

• 1 pound fresh strawberries (thinly sliced (~1/8-inch))
• 3 tablespoons maple syrup (plus more to taste)
• pinch fine sea salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. 1

   Add strawberries, maple syrup and salt to a medium saucepan; cook and stir over medium heat until mixture comes to boil. Reduce heat and simmer until berries soften and mixture thickens, 8 to 10 minutes (or longer to reach your desired thickness). Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Taste and add more maple syrup if desired.

2. 2

   Set compote aside to cool slightly before serving (it will thicken as it cools). Serve. Or allow to cool completely then transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
