Ingredients For blueberry compote

  • 1 c
    frozen blueberries, thawed
  • 1 c
    water, warm
  • 1/2 c
    white sugar
  • 1/2 c
    brown sugar
  • 1 dash

How To Make blueberry compote

  • 1
    Make slurry by wisking cornstarch in cold water until completely dissolved. Set aside.
  • 2
    Continuously wisk all the ingredients together -- except lemon juice -- in a small sauce pan over low heat until sugar is dissolved.
  • 3
    Increase heat to medium and bring to a gentle boil, stirring often, until syrup is thickened, about 15 minutes.
  • 4
    Right before mixture boils, wisk in the slurry and continue wisking until well combined and syrup begins to thicken.
  • 5
    Once thickened, wisk in lemon juice. Serve immediately or cool.
