Rhubarb Compote

By á-4084

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, plus more for dusting
• 2 large rectangles shredded wheat cereal
• Confectioners' sugar, for dusting
• 1 pint vanilla ice cream or frozen yogurt
• 1 pound rhubarb, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (about 4 cups)
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup honey

Preparation

Step 1

Combine the rhubarb, sugar, honey, butter and cinnamon in a large microwave-safe bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and pierce once or twice to allow steam to escape. Microwave until the rhubarb is tender, about 6 minutes. Carefully remove the plastic wrap and stir.

Meanwhile, break the shredded wheat into smaller pieces in a bowl. Dust with confectioners' sugar and cinnamon.

Spoon the rhubarb compote into bowls, top with ice cream and sprinkle with the shredded wheat.

Reader Comment:Super quick & easy. I added a bit of corn starch, diluted in water, after 5 mins, to thicken it up and then stirred in fresh strawberries.
