The compote was a bit runny for my liking. I think I'll add a bit more cornstarch next time.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

This recipe is a game-changer! I've never been a big fan of fruit compote, but this one has changed my mind. The spices add so much depth and flavor, and the fruit is cooked to perfection. I've already made it twice and I'm sure I'll be making it man

Just made this compote and it's amazing! The spices really elevate the flavors of the fruit and make it a truly special dish. I can't wait to try it with different combinations of fruits and spices.

This compote is a perfect way to use up leftover fruit. I had a bunch of apples, pears, and berries that were about to go bad, so I threw them all in a pot with some spices and sugar and let it simmer. The result was a delicious and versatile compote

Easy to make and incredibly delicious! I followed the recipe exactly and the compote turned out perfectly. The flavors were well-balanced and the fruits were cooked to perfection. I served it with yogurt and granola for breakfast and it was a hit wit

This spiced fruit compote was a delightful treat! The combination of fruits and spices created a symphony of flavors that tantalized my taste buds. I especially loved the hint of cinnamon and nutmeg, which added a warm and inviting aroma to the dish.
