Compotes are a super easy way to dress up a plate of pancakes or a bowl of ice cream, or even a slice of vanilla cheesecake. You can make them on the stovetop by reducing them for 30 minutes or so, or you can make them in your pressure cooker in about 5 minutes.

Ingredients
  • 4 cups blueberries fresh or frozen
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 cinnamon stick broken in half

  1. Combine all the ingredients in the pressure cooker and bring to a simmer using the BROWN setting. Stir to dissolve the sugar and lock the lid in place.
  2. Pressure cooker on HIGH for 5 minutes.
  3. Let the pressure drop NATURALLY and carefully remove the lid. Transfer the blueberries to a bowl with a slotted spoon and cool to room temperature. Remove the cinnamon stick.
