Blueberry Sauce

This is an easy blueberry sauce to make for ice cream, cheesecake etc.

Blueberry Sauce

Ingredients:

  • 1/3 cup warm water
  • 1 T. fresh lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 tsp. cornstarch
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries (if using frozen, do not thaw)
  • 2 T granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla 

Directions:

  1. Whisk the cornstarch, water, and lemon juice together until al the cornstarch has dissolved. Set aside.
  2. Warm the blueberries and sugar together in a small saucepan over medium heat. With a wooden spoon or sturdy silicone spatula, stir continuously for 3 minutes, smashing the berries against the sides of the pan to help them release some juices. (If you used frozen blueberries, you won't need to smash them as much because they will naturally break down as they thaw over heat.)
  3. After 3 minutes , add the cornstarch mixture and continue to stir for another 2-3 minutes, smashing more berries if needed.  The mixture will start to boil and thicken.
  4. Remove from the heat and add the vanilla.
  5. Can serve this sauce warm or cool.  Should keep for a week, refrigerated.
