This Easy Blueberry Compote is deliciously summery, and bursting with juicy blueberries!

This Easy Blueberry Compote is whipped up in 15 minutes and has only 5 ingredients:) When blueberries are plentiful this is such a treat. It’s so good it’s hard not to eat it straight out of the pan. There are plenty of uses for a compote, here are a few to get you started:

in oatmeal
swirled into yogurt
over pancakes and waffles
as a side to most desserts – especially ice cream and nice cream!
with French toast

The idea of a compote is very straightforward, throw a couple of cups of summer fruit into a pan, add some citrus zest and juice, a little sweetener and bring it to the boil. Simmer until it thickens a little, almost like a runny jam. Add any flavoring you like such as cinnamon, vanilla extract, ground ginger, etc.
