  2. Add 1/2 cup orange juice, 1 cup fresh or frozen pitted cherries (if frozen, do not thaw), and 1 tablespoon finely grated orange zest.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer for 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
  4. Remove from heat and serve immediately over warm lemon yogurt pancakes or waffles. Enjoy!
