Warm Berry Sauce

Vegan
Gluten-Free
This warm compote is the perfect balance between sweet and
tart and is great for adding to plain Greek yogurt, topping Yogurt
Cheesecake Bars (page 274), or just eating by the spoonful.

Ingredient Tip: Do you ever start juicing lemons only to realize
there’s hardly any juice in them? To get the most juice out of a
lemon, pick those that seem heavy for their size and are easy to
press when squeezed. Before slicing into them, give them a quick
roll with your palm to mash the pulp and get the juice flowing.

¼ cup lemon juice 3 tablespoons honey
¼ cup water 2 cups frozen mixed berries
2 teaspoons arrowroot powder ¼ teaspoon lemon zest

In a small saucepan, combine lemon juice, water, arrowroot pow-
der, and honey. Stir in the berries and lemon zest. Bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the
berries begin to lose shape. Remove the saucepan from heat and
let cool until warm. Or, cool completely, cover, and refrigerate for
up to 1 week.
Makes about 1 cup. Prep time: 5 minutes. Cooking time: 5 minutes.
