Ingredients
- 2/12-3 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen
- ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
- 2-3 tbsp sugar
- zest of one lemon
- 2 tsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
- Combine the blueberries, cinnamon, sugar, and lemon zest in a small saucepan
- Bring to a light boil, and gently simmer for approximately 10 minutes, or until the blueberries release their juices. Stir occasionally while the berries are simmering
- After they’re cooked, add more sugar, if you think it needs it. Whisk together the corn starch and water, and add this to the pan to thicken the compote. If it’s too thick, add a tablespoon or two of water to thin the mixture
