Ingredients
- 500 grams rhubarb stalks
- 100 grams granular erythritol
- 100 milliliters water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Directions
Step 1
Begin by thoroughly washing the rhubarb stalks. Trim off any leaves and dice the stalks into 1-inch pieces.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the diced rhubarb, erythritol, water, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and ground cinnamon.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally to ensure the erythritol dissolves completely.
Step 4
Once simmering, reduce the heat to low and allow the mixture to cook gently for 20-25 minutes. Stir every few minutes to prevent sticking.
Step 5
The compote is ready when the rhubarb has softened and broken down, and the liquid has thickened slightly.
Step 6
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the compote cool to room temperature. The compote will continue to thicken as it cools.
Step 7
Transfer the cooled compote to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to a week.
Step 8
Serve the rhubarb compote cold or warm as desired, topping your favorite low-carb pancakes, yogurt, or even enjoy it on its own.
