How to Make Blueberry Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups fresh blueberries, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup water, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
  2. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 3-4 minutes, or until blueberries are tender and have released their juices.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 2 tablespoons cold water until smooth and free of lumps.
  4. Gradually whisk the cornstarch slurry into the simmering blueberry mixture. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, for another 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
  5. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving warm or cold. Enjoy!
