How to Make Light Blueberry Sauce

  1. Gently combine 2 cups fresh blueberries, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, and 1 tablespoon cornstarch in a small saucepan.
  2. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the sauce begins to thicken and the blueberries soften (about 8-10 minutes).
  3. Reduce heat to low and simmer for another 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, to ensure a smooth, glossy consistency.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy the delicious topping over your favorite pancakes, waffles, ice cream, or desserts!
