Homemade Blueberry Sauce

Easy Homemade blueberry Sauce is the perfect topping for ice-cream, pancakes, as well as many other desserts.

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups blueberries fresh or frozen
  • 3/4 cup sugar, add more or less depending on sweetness of berries
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1 1/2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp lemon rind
  • 2 tbsp pure vanilla extract

Directions:
Rinse blueberries and add them to a saucepan. Stir in sugar, water, cornstarch, lemon juice, and lemon rind. Bring to a medium boil. Blueberry sauce will continue to thicken.  Continue on low boil for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Serve warm or cold. If you are planning to freeze, allow sauce to cool completely before transferring to freezer jars or food storage containers.
