Note

For a vegan version, substitute the vanilla frozen yogurt with a plant-based frozen dessert or coconut whipped cream.

Apricot preserves or orange marmalade work well as substitutes for peach preserves, offering a slightly different tartness or citrus note.

Leftover compote can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving or enjoy cold.

This dish is best served immediately after assembly to maintain the contrast between the warm fruit and cold topping.
