I don't know about you, but I like to go ALL out when I make my Buttermilk Pancakes and this strawberry compote is a must!

Making Strawberry Compote

As I mentioned, you only need three ingredients for this recipe, strawberries, brown sugar and a squeeze of lemon juice! Alternatively, you can use frozen strawberries instead of fresh, and coconut sugar instead of brown sugar.

The compote comes together in less than 10 minutes and is stored in the refrigerator in an air-tight container for up to a week.
