A vibrant blueberry sauce bursting with flavor! Made with fresh or frozen blueberries with the slightest hint of lemon. Delicious served over pancakes, ice cream, yogurt, crepes, and more!
Combine the maple syrup, water, and blueberries in a large saucepan over medium to medium-high heat. Bring to a low boil and continue to simmer until the blueberries burst, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, stir the cornstarch and water together in a small bowl; set aside.
Add the wild blueberries to the saucepan and stir in the cornstarch-water slurry. Bring the blueberries to a simmer and stir occasionally until the sauce thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
Turn off the heat and stir in the lemon juice and vanilla. Allow the sauce to cool at least 10 minutes before serving.
Store in an air-tight covered container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
Notes
- This blueberry sauce is delicious served warm over pancakes, ice cream, and crepes. It’s also great served chilled over yogurt, cheesecake, muffins, yogurt, or in a yogurt parfait.
