Wash blueberries. Combine blueberries, sugar and water in medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Simmer for about 10 minutes. While simmering, mix 1 tablespoon of water with cornstarch and set aside. Add cornstarch mixture to blueberries. Mix, reduce heat to low and reduce, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool at room temperature.
Melt butter and whisk together with eggs, buttermilk and vanilla extract in small mixing bowl. Set aside.
Whisk flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and sugar together in medium mixing bowl. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix together until just combined. Don’t overmix, some lumps are okay.
Heat skillet or griddle over medium heat and brush with about 1 tablespoon of oil. Scoop and cook about ⅓-cup batter per pancake, about 2-3 minutes per side. Place finished pancakes in oven to keep warm. Continue to rebrush skillet or griddle with oil as needed.
Serve warm with blueberry compote, maple syrup and butter.
