Tip
In season, you can use fresh pitted cherries, or harder pears and apples, or even rhubarb. Cherry compote can also be used, but then add less sugar to the mixture. This dessert can be served hot or cold. Vanilla ice cream or sour cream tastes great with the hot version. For preparation, you will need baking dishes with a diameter of 8 cm and a height of 5 cm.
