In a medium saucepan combine the cherries, sugar, lemon juice, water, cornstarch, and lemon zest.
Cook the cherry mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the cherries soften and the mixture thickens and starts to boil, about 10-15 minutes.
Allow the compote to boil for about 1 minute while continually stirring then remove from the heat. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Transfer the cherry compote to a heatproof container and cool for about 15 minutes. Serve warm or allow it to cool completely in the fridge. The compote will thicken as it cools. Serve over ice cream, cheesecake, waffles, and more!
