1. Prepare the fruit by peeling and dicing the mangoes and pineapple into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
2. In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the orange juice, lime juice, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, cinnamon stick, and water.
3. Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir gently until the honey is fully dissolved and the mixture begins to simmer.
4. Add the diced mango and pineapple to the saucepan. Stir to coat the fruit in the liquid and allow it to cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
5. Stir in the passion fruit pulp and cook for an additional 2–3 minutes, ensuring the mixture remains warm but does not boil vigorously.
6. Remove the saucepan from the heat and discard the cinnamon stick.
7. Let the compote cool slightly before serving. It can be enjoyed warm, at room temperature, or chilled.
8. Garnish with fresh mint leaves, if desired, and serve over yogurt, pancakes, waffles, ice cream, or as a stand-alone dessert.
