Notes

Our daughter loves these berries chilled in a packed lunch. When I say 6 servings, that’s for people who will share. Our 53-pound 8-year-old will literally eat almost an entire batch in one day if I let her. 

This fruit compote is delicious with these sour cream pancakes!

Sour Cream Pancakes

This is hands-down, our family’s favorite pancake recipe. Sometimes I exchange the sour cream for Greek yogurt. I often make these on Saturday mornings and then use the leftovers for hearty snacks after swim lessons. Add peanut or almond butter and honey or maple syrup to make them a more nutritious snack. They’re also delicious served with our Fruit Compote Recipe! Add some whipped cream on top of both for a dessert!
