Healthy Blueberry Compote Recipes

BLUEBERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• Combine 1/2 the blueberries, sugar, and water in a small, heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer, stirring often, until blueberries burst, about 10 minutes.
• Stir remaining blueberries into the simmering mixture. Continue to simmer until compote thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 8 minutes.

15-MINUTE BLUEBERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• Place the blueberries, water, lemon juice and stevia in a small saucepan and mix gently. Heat over low heat.
• Cook, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon, until the blueberries are very soft and starting to burst. This should take 10-15 minutes, depending on the level of heat you use.
• Remove the saucepan from the heat. Allow to the compote to slightly cool and thicken, about 2 minutes. Serve alone in dessert bowls, or as a topping.

BLUEBERRY COMPOTE FOR CREPES

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan combine 1 cup blueberries, sugar and water. Simmer for about 10 minutes. Many berries will begin to burst and syrup should thicken. Add remaining cup of berries and allow them to heat through.
• Spoon warm compote into crepes. Drizzle with maple syrup and dollop with sweetened whipped cream. Garnish with additional blueberries.

BLUEBERRY OR BLACKBERRY COMPOTE WITH YOGURT OR RICOTTA

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except cornstarch dissolved in water and ricotta or yogurt in a saucepan. Add 1 tablespoon water and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer until blueberries release their juices and blackberries begin to break apart, about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally from time to time.
• Stir in dissolved cornstarch and stir until mixture thickens. Remove from heat and allow to cool, or serve warm, spooned over yogurt or ricotta. Alternative method: I use this method with blackberries, since as they break down more: Toss the berries in a bowl with 2 tablespoons organic sugar. Cover and refrigerate overnight. The next day, add 1 more tablespoon sugar, honey or agave nectar if desired and proceed with step 1 of the recipe.
