How to Make All Purpose Blueberry Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups fresh blueberries, 1/2 cup water, 1/4 cup honey, 2 tablespoons lemon juice (bottled is fine!), 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional), and a pinch of ground nutmeg (optional).
  2. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
  3. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until blueberries have softened and released their juices.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons cornstarch and 2 tablespoons cold water until smooth. This creates a slurry.
  5. Gradually whisk the cornstarch slurry into the simmering blueberry mixture.
  6. Continue to simmer, stirring constantly, for 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
  7. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or cold!
