Raw Peach Lavender Compote

Summer is my favorite time of year because fresh fruit is SO abundant, especially stone fruit. Nectarines and peaches are at their peak during this season, so take advantage!

This simple dish is raw, and takes minutes to make. You can use it on ice cream, as a relish on crackers and more. Make sure to pick ripe peaches that are ready to be eaten. You can also use nectarines or apricots as a substitute.

 

INGREDIENTS

• 5 ripe peaches, pitted and cut into ¼” cubes
• Juice of 1 lemon
• 2 tablespoons raw local honey
• 2 teaspoons dried lavender buds

Place peaches in a medium size bowl. Add remaining ingredients and stir to coat peaches. Let sit for about 20 minutes to marinate. Serve over vegan or dairy free ice cream.
