Notes

Feel free to switch out the dried fruits for your favorites; apricots or figs also work wonderfully! If you're looking to reduce sugar, use less brown sugar or a natural sweetener like stevia. These compote cups store well in the refrigerator for up to four days and can be reheated gently in the microwave. Enjoy this versatile dessert that offers both nourishment and a heavenly taste!
