A quick dessert fixture on Austrian tables, Zwetschkenröster is made by simmering fresh plums briefly with a cinnamon stick. With no added fat and simple, natural ingredients, this compote is served on its own or alongside other desserts.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the plums

5 min

Wash the plums, remove the pits and quarter each one.

2

Simmer

10 min

Put the plums in a saucepan with the water, sugar and cinnamon stick, and simmer over low heat for 10 minutes, until soft and releasing their juices.

3

Serve

Remove the cinnamon stick and serve warm or cold, with a sprinkle of lemon zest if you like.

Reminder

If your plums are very tart, add another tablespoon of sugar; the sweetness balances the tartness.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Cooking the plums with the skin on is less work and gives the compote a lovely reddish-purple color. You can also stir it into oats for a breakfast bowl.
