Sweet and simple is what we like. And sweet and simple is what you get with Good-Morning Compote. Your waffles and pancakes (and your family) will thank you when you simply toss some frozen mixed berries, a touch of sugar, and the zest and juice of an orange into the slow cooker to create this magical delight! Not just for breakfast, Good-Morning Compote will also enlighten pound cake and angel food cake, too (and those could be eaten for breakfast, if you dare)! Sweet, simple, and magical… that’s the way we love it!
