1 1/2 tablespoons water

Method
Cherry compote
Wash the cherries, cut in half and de-pit. Place in a medium size saucepan with the coconut sugar, orange juice, almond extract and orange zest. Cook over a medium heat for 10-15 minutes, staring occasionally, until the cherries have softened. While they are cooking, prepare the starch mix. Stir the corn flour and water together to create a paste. Once the cherries are soft add the cornflour paste and cook for 30 seconds. This will help thicken the compote to a thick syrupy consistency. If making this on the morning of, you can enjoy having the cherry compote warm with your breakfast. Otherwise you can store this in an airtight container for 7 days.
