Thanks Jim! Glad the Key Lime Pie was a hit. Yes, you can make it with cherries – https://www.pressurecookingtoday.com/pressure-cooker-cherry-compote/ Enjoy!

I just made your instapot key lime pie and it was stunning so I’m poking around your other stuff 😉 this looks awesome! Can this be adapted to cherries?

Instead of corn starch I add chai seeds to my blueberry compote and less sugar also it tastes amazing!

In reply to LeAnn. Hi Leann - you can double it but it will need a longer natural release so no juices come out of the valve.

I was wondering if this recipe could be doubled in the 6 qt PC?

In reply to LK. You definitely want to dissolve it in water completely before adding it to the pot. Try whisking in a couple tablespoons of the hot liquid into the cornstarch mixture before adding it to the pot. That will help keep the cornstarch from clumping up when you add it to the pot. Just be sure and stir it constantly while you're adding it and while you're cooking it. Thanks for the question.

I love your compote recipe. However, I run into trouble when adding the corn starch component. It doesn’t seem to dissolve well when added (I’ve tried mixing w/water before hand and sifting into pot while stirring) but it ends up clumping into small gelatin pieces when cooled. What am I doing wrong?! Thanks for your helP!

In reply to Sarah. Hi Sarah - if you increased the thickeners it should make a delicious pie filling. Probably double or triple the amount of cornstarch.
