How to make Perfect Cherry Compote | Homemade Cherry Pie Filling

#cherrycompote #cherrypiefilling
This homemade cherry pie filling recipe is perfect, quick and very easy to make. I have measured the main ingredients in grams to be very precise which will give you perfect result each time. This recipe calls for sweet cherries. If the cherries you are using are sour, then increase the amount of sugar by 50g keeping the measurements of other ingredients as it is.
Full Ingredient List
500g Sweet Cherries (fresh)
100g Sugar
2 pinches salt
1 Teaspoon lemon juice
1/8 cup (30 ml)Water
2 (10g) Tablespoon Corn Flour
4 Tablespoon water
Recipe
1. Wash and pit cherries.
2 Place the pitted cherries in a thick bottom pan along with water and sugar.
3. Switch on the flame and start cooking on medium heat.
4. Add salt.
5. Let it cook on medium heat for around 10 minutes.
6. The mixture will start bubbling and become foamy due to presence of sugar.
7. Keep cooking for 7-8 minutes more on medium heat. Give it a gentle stir from time to time.
8. The cherries will become soft.
9. Reduce the flame to low and make a slurry of corn flour and water. Mix well so that the slurry is lump free.
10. Add to the sauce and mix well.
11. With the flame on low just cook the sauce for 1 Minute more.
12. The sauce will thicken instantly. Do not overcook as the sauce thickens more as it cools down.
13. Switch off the flame. Add in the lemon juice and mix well.
14. Transfer to a sterilised jar once it cools down completely.
Notes
1. Do not leave the compote unattended after adding the corn starch slurry. It will stick to the bottom in no time creating lumps and ruining the texture.
2. Stir very gently while cooking the cherries so that they turn soft without ruining their shape.
3. Feel free to use this filling in cakes. pies, ice creams or cheesecakes.
4. The compote stays good in refrigerator for 15 days. I do not recommend storing beyond a fortnight as it is preservative free.

Okay, so I made this last night, while cooking dinner,(that's how easy it is) I served it over poundcake with whipped cream. It was sooo good, the fresh cherries had that sweet and and tangy taste you could never get from a can of pie filling. My husband and daughter loved it. Thank you.

[@msr1116]

I use my slow cooker to make fresh sauces, compotes, jams and make use of unsweetened applesauce, chia seeds and low sugar pectin powder for thickening, which are more stable than starch thickeners. Chilled water ensures the starch dissolves completely.

[@Manifestgoodlife]

How long we can store this?

[@Allenmassageguy]

Just use frozen cherries. So much easier. Bet u can do this with fresh cranberries too. Yum❤

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

Totally agree!!

[@agnesyeo1418]

I just made the cherry compote. How long will it keep in fridge. I am planning to make black forest cake in 2 weeks' time.

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

As you know this compote has no preservatives at all. It will stay fresh for up to a week in refrigerator. After that it will develop a change of taste

[@smitar7623]

Looks wonderful 😍 How long can I store this in the freezer?

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

You can freeze it for 2 months

[@smitar7623]

@@cooknbakewithNeha thank you

[@MrManthra]

@@cooknbakewithNeha Please let me know is it necessary to freeze or refrigerate? Thank you for sharing your valued cooking ideas.

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

Best idea is to refrigerate and consume within 7 days then make a fresh batch

[@MrManthra]

@@cooknbakewithNeha Thank you very much!

[@az6782]

Can i use it on top of cheesecake? I think it would be nice to make cherry cheesecake with this vompote.

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

Sure!! That would be a great idea

[@chrisop4428]

Could it be a good idea to add a little bit of amaretto? Or maybe not.

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

A very small quantity will definitely enhance the flavour

[@devinm.6149]

Does it have to be corn flour, or is corn just recommended?

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

Corn flour or corn starch anything is fine. It just has to be a neutral flavour thickening agent

[@kamiabbott9732]

Can I make this without adding the sugar?

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

Sometimes the cherries are too tart to be relished without sugar. If the cherries you are using are sweet enough then yes you can skip the sugar otherwise you can add some honey after the compote is completely cooked but still warm. You can also add maple syrup if you like it’s taste. Hope it helps 😊

[@TheBinklemNetwork]

Is the lemon for acid?

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

Yes

[@eddie45658]

Is it 500g before, or after pits are removed?

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

Before the pits are removed

[@ritujain6765]

Is compote se kya kya bna sakte h

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

You can use it as filling in cakes or muffins. You can also serve a tablespoon of this compote on top of ice cream

[@15Chirpy]

Hello Ma'am. What is the shelf life of this compote if refrigerated?

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

Best is to keep it refrigerated and consume within a week..

[@roomipuri8349]

How to pit the cherries without cherry putter?

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

So you can take a barbecue stick and push it from the stem side of cherry. The seed will come out from the other side

[@dineshkumar-to8mg]

How long we can store this

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

1 week in refrigerator

[@user-hr9gy4zp8b]

I made it with frozen cherries! I followed your instructions but at last , it turned sticky without sauce at all, what I can do??

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

Looks like you have overcooked the sauce

[@eduardotorreskercado2595]

Can I add some liqueur to the recipe?

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

Yes you can add

[@prismaroundgurjeet]

Self life of this compote

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

1 week in refrigerator

[@doppio_9983]

it didn't thicken instantly when I added the corn starch where did I go wrong :(

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

There can be a couple of reasons 1. Did you add too much of liquid? 2. Was the mixture cooked enough? The compote thickens more after cooling down completely. The hot compote might appear to be more of a liquid texture but will thicken eventually when it cools down

[@sof9254]

This looks great, it's gonna be the sauce to my PORK TENDERLOINS the 7 th august 2022 with 8 family members... oh yeah the tenderloins will be coated with a cocoa,chilli based rub just to spice them up -a- bit ... THE CHERRY BASED SAUCE/COMPOT being the STAR OF THE MOUTHFUL of PORK surprise ?

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

Amazing!!!

[@gary1961]

I always add a small splash of almond extract to cherries.

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

That is a great idea

[@wikiwoof9590]

She really measured in grams AND cups LOL

[@advrpbella]

I think you used corn starch instead of corn flour. Am I right?

[@cooknbakewithNeha]

Yes dear.. you are right☺️
