A clean-eating recipe for easy homemade blueberry compote made with frozen wild blueberries, coconut sugar, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and freshly squeezed lemon juice. This compote is the perfect accompaniment to oatmeal, pancakes, french toast or waffles!
This delicious blueberry compote is a wonderful alternative to sugary syrups and jellies to serve with healthy pancake recipes. My daughter loves blueberry syrup, but the kind sold in grocery stores is typically loaded with high fructose corn syrup and very high in sugar. This is a great substitute and much tastier.
Serve with Cottage Cheese Pancakes or Healthy Buttermilk Pancakes. It would also be a great alternative topping for Lemon Cheesecake!
How To Make Homemade Blueberry Compote
Ingredients:
3 cups frozen wild blueberries
½ cup coconut sugar
1 tablespoon grade A amber maple syrup
3 tablespoon water
2 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
1 teaspoon real vanilla extract
2 teaspoon tapioca starch
Directions:
Combine half of the frozen berries and all other ingredients, except tapioca starch, in a medium saucepan. Simmer on medium heat for 10 minutes, stirring often. Add in the rest of the frozen berries and cook another 8 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in tapioca starch and cook a couple of minutes more until thickened and liquid coats the back of a spoon.
Serve this blueberry compote warm. So delicious.

Perfection without the too syrupy taste. Flavors meld beautifully. Following recipe exactly, but had to substitute corn starch for tapioca starch for I did not have. Doubled recipe to serve at waffle brunch for 12.
