To begin with this particular recipe, we must prepare a few components. You can have blackberry strawberry compote using 5 ingredients and 4 steps. Here is how you cook it.
The ingredients needed to make Blackberry Strawberry Compote:

To a certain extent you can control the consistency in a homemade compote recipe especially when it comes to making a berry compote. As defined by Wikipedia, Compote is a dessert originating from medieval Europe, made of whole or pieces of fruit cooked in sugar syrup with spices like cinnamon added to it. I made my keto strawberry compote with strawberries and blueberries but you can definitely make yours with any low carb/ keto fruit you like. This simple blackberry compote has the consistency of a chunky fruit syrup and is perfect on a variety of foods, such as ice cream, crepes, yogurt, oatmeal, and ricotta toast.
Instructions to make Blackberry Strawberry Compote:
- Stir everything together in a pot and put on medium heat until all the sugar melts. Stir again, lower the heat to just above low and simmer for about 35 to 45 minutes, depending on how large the cooking surface of your cooking vessel. Don't forget to stir occasionally to make sure nothing sticks and burns. If the compote starts sticking, your heat's too high, and you should adjust it down.
- Once cooled, you can store it in any covered glass or plastic container. Also, the larger the surface, the less time because your layer is thinner and takes less time to cook. I used a 3.5 quart saucepan today with a roughly 7-inch diameter, and it took 45 minutes.
- You can add spices like cinnamon, cardamom, clove, or even a little ginger to this if you like. Lemon and orange zest are also delicious. I usually like to make it plain so I can flavor it according to use. Enjoy! :)
It's a great way to use up fresh berries. Feel free to mash the berries with a fork or potato masher for a smoother consistency. This recipe is from the Williams-Sonoma FRUIT DESSERT cookbook, a copy of which my gracious partner in the current Cookbook Swap sent to me! It is ALWAYS best to use fruits when they are in season, but if making this recipe when they are not, frozen berries COULD be used!. Heat over medium heat until it starts to bubble, then lightly mash the fruit and stir.
