Method
To make the compote
1. Put the blueberries into a small pan and add the sugar and lemon juice.
2. Set on a medium heat and gently warm, stirring for 2-3 mins until the blueberries have broken down and formed a compote (it will have slightly thickened, with some berries still whole but softened).
3. Allow to cool then stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Spoon into a bowl, ready to add as a topping. It can be served warm or cold.
To make the pancake mixture
1. Place the flour, baking powder and sugar in a bowl and combine well.
2. Stir in the eggs and milk. Beat well. After a minute add the melted butter.
3. Heat the pan or griddle and brush with a little melted butter.
4. When the pan reaches a medium heat, carefully pour about 1 tablespoon of batter into the pan. (Use about 1 tablespoon of batter per pancake).
5. Cook the pancake for about 2 minutes until you see bubbles appear on the the surface. Flip it over and cook for a further minute.
6. Serve immediately with your favourite topping.
