Number Of Ingredients 3

6 cups strawberries ({tops removed and cut into quarters})
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp lemon juice

Steps:

  • Rinse and remove the tops of the berries.
  • Cut berries in quarters (or eighths for big ones) and add them to a large saucepan.
  • Cook berries over medium heat and gently mush them with a wooden spoon or spatula as they heat up.
  • Add in the sugar and lemon juice and continue to cook, stirring often until the syrup comes to a boil.
  • Cook at a boil for two minutes, stirring the whole time. You may need to lower the heat a bit to keep the sauce from boiling over.
  • Remove the pot from the heat and allow the syrup to cool before storing. It will thicken as it cools.
  • Using a metal spoon, skim foam from the top of the sauce.

LOW-SUGAR STRAWBERRY COMPOTE



Low-Sugar Strawberry Compote image

Most compotes call for excessive amounts of sugar, making them rather calorie laden. This recipe takes advantage of natural ingredients allowing, for the simple goodness of the strawberries' sweetness to shine through. This can be used as an ice cream topping, or a topping for pancakes, waffles, or French toast. Feel free to also use it in pastries.

15 MINUTE STRAWBERRY SYRUP RECIPE



15 Minute Strawberry Syrup Recipe image

Provided by Natalie Clark

Categories     Breakfast Sides

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 heaping cups fresh strawberries, rinsed and hulled
1 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons water, for adding to the cornstarch

Steps:

  • Start with three cups of ripe strawberries. Chop off the tops, being very careful not to allow any stems, leaves, or other debris to stick to the fruit.
  • Give the berries a very good rinse, and pop them in the small pot with the sugar, water, and lemon juice to start a simple syrup. Sliced strawberries will work well, too.
  • Turn on the heat to medium-high and mash the berries as they start to cook.
  • Once it reaches a boil, let the syrup boil for five to six minutes.
  • While it's boiling, make the slurry of cornstarch and water.
  • After the syrup has boiled for five to six minutes and the sugar melts/dissolves, add the cornstarch mix and let it boil another minute.
  • The syrup should thicken up by this point. If it has not, let it boil a few more minutes.
  • If you think it's still not thick enough, add more slurry and repeat the process. Remember, it doesn't need to be totally thick at this point, it will continue to thicken as it cools.
  • You should let it cool to room temperature before serving.
