Servings: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups of fresh blueberries
- ½ cup of water
- ⅓ cup of sugar
- 1 tablespoon of cornstarch
- ½ - 1 tablespoon of lemon juice*
Instructions
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the blueberries, water, and sugar. Stir to combine and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook over low for 4 minutes until the blueberries begin to soften and break down.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and cornstarch. Pour lemon mixture into the saucepan and stir to combine. Continue to cook at low, stirring often, for 3-4 more minutes. The mixture should thicken considerably and you can cook it for an extra couple minutes if you want it thicker.
- Serve and ENJOY! I like to serve this as is but you can also blend the mixture so it’s smooth and creamy.
Notes
*can also sub for 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract but i do not recommend adding both
