Hot Blueberry Sauce (sometimes called compote) is amazing on breakfast foods like pancakes, waffles and French toast. But did you ever try it on a croissant?

Hot Blueberry Sauce

Hot blueberry sauce is deliciously versatile.

Do you ever wish you could eat Blueberry Sauce every day? Well, this month is "July Belongs to Blueberries Month." You still have a few days to try this recipe while the blueberries are still in season. It is a tasty sauce to use on Pancakes, Waffles, or Gluten Free Lemon Cake. It's delicious over ice cream, Lemon Meringue Pie, or even Cornbread. As you can see, this Blueberry Sauce is an adaptable fruit sauce. Some people refer to it as Fruit Compote.

I am not sure where the recipe originally came from, but I think it is one that has been in Don's family for years. Hot Blueberry Sauce is easy to make and everyone loves it. We have another Blueberry Compote recipe that was equally as good. The two recipes are quite similar. I suggest you take a look at both of them.

What You Need

Besides the ingredients, you will need a good, heavy-bottomed pan, measuring cups and spoons, and something to stir it with. I suggest you buy the best tools you can afford (or maybe a little better than you can afford!) because they will last a lifetime. Wouldn't it be fun to serve Hot Blueberry Sauce in a Fondue Pot?
