Recipe View Once thickened, remove the slow cooker insert and allow to cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature. The compote can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

For a richer flavor, consider adding a splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon to the compote during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
If you prefer a smoother compote, you can use an immersion blender to partially blend the mixture after it has thickened. Be careful not to over-blend, as this can make the compote too thin.
Fresh berries can be substituted for frozen, but reduce the cooking time slightly as fresh berries will soften more quickly.
Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference, depending on the sweetness of the berries.

    I found that my compote was a little too thin after the initial cooking time, so I added another tablespoon of cornstarch and it thickened up perfectly.
