ND-1027- Cooking with Ceci for Culinaria

Spiced Fruit Compote is the perfect topping for your breakfast. Not only the spices and tea will bring a beautiful aroma and warmth to your kitchen, but I love how simple, delicious and healthy this recipe is! Spoon over porridge, waffles, crunchy granola or vanilla ice-cream as dessert! The variations are limitless!  You can make it the day before and warm it before serving.

Note: Dried fruit is a good source of fiber, iron, potassium and antioxidants.
