'The Warm berry compote was delicious and so easy. The raspberries gave it a lovely sharpness, and I served it with good quality-vanilla ice cream.'

    Can you do this without the butter to save calories? Not sure what the addition of butter does. Can anyone tell me? Thanks.

    I have done it without butter and its still great. I also use organic vanilla sugar and about 2 teaspoons, again it still tastes great. I love it with porridge or greek yoghurt too.
