Wonderful on waffles, pancakes, and french toast, even ice cream. I serve it on Christmas morning; it can be made a day ahead. From the December 2001 issue of "Bon Appetit".

I followed the recipe exactly and the compote turned out perfectly. It was thick and flavorful, and the cranberries and apples were still slightly tart.
