Delectable Pleasures

What did you do with your fruity summer harvests?

I have a stash of 'canned' nectarines, nectarine and plum compotes, and apple sauce. (I really don't like the sound of 'canned' 'preserved' sounds more 'edible'.)

The fruits were so sweet, there was no need to add anything at all - except perhaps a cinnamon stick.

All of these are fabulous just by themselves as a sweet treat or added to cottage cheese, blintzes, crepes, ice cream, pancakes. My favorite is a bowl of ricotta with any of these fruits and a helping of sugared, toasted almonds. A dash of whipped cream is the height of culinary delight.
