Guava compote is one of Mexican cuisine's dairy-free dessert classics, made by softening halved guavas with cinnamon and sugar in a pressure cooker in just a few minutes. Using a pressure cooker drastically cuts down the long boiling time that guava's firm flesh would otherwise need. Served cold, it's a simple yet satisfying option for anyone looking for a light, refreshing dessert.
Mix the sugar, water, cinnamon and clove in the pressure cooker and bring to a boil.
Add the halved guavas to the syrup, close the lid and cook for 8 minutes once the valve starts hissing.
Remove from heat and let it cool naturally for 7 minutes until the valve stops hissing.
Chill the guavas in their syrup in the refrigerator for 2 hours before serving.
If you open the lid before the pressure has released, the guavas can fall apart — be sure to wait until the valve stops hissing.
Adding a pinch of clove to the syrup gives the guava compote the warm spice note typical of Mexican markets.
