It seems very similar to a sauce I had at her restaurant Ruby Watchco poured over Niagara Gold Cheddar and had wanted to replicate the combo. This does the trick - one of my favourite sauces!
Ingredients:
2 cups fresh cherries, pitted and halved
1/2 cup orange juice
1/4 cup sugar
1 cinnamon stick
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
1 tablespoon cornstarch
Directions:
1. Combine cherries, orange juice, sugar and cinnamon stick in medium saucepan. Scrape in seeds from vanilla bean and add bean. Bring to boil over high heat, stirring until sugar dissolves; boil 1 minute. Strain into bowl. Reserve cherries. Return juices from bowl, cinnamon stick and vanilla bean to same pan. Mix 1 tablespoon water and cornstarch in small bowl; stir into juices in pan. Stir over medium heat until juices boil and thicken, about 1 minute. Mix in reserved cherries. Chill compote 2 hours.
