Ingredients
- 2 cups Frozen Blueberries , see note 1
- ¼ cup brown Sugar , see note 2
- 2 ounces Unsalted Butter (60 grams), see note 3
- Fresh Lemon Juice from ½ Lemon or to taste, see note 4
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine blueberries, sugar, lemon juice and 2 tablespoons water. Cook on medium-high for about 12 minutes, stirring from time to time.
- Stir in butter and cook for a further 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and let it cool down a bit (see note 5).
- Enjoy with yogurt, oatmeal, French toast sticks, pancakes or anything you like.
Notes
- You can use either frozen or fresh blueberries. Fresh might need slightly more water than frozen.
- Brown sugar can be substituted with white sugar or another sweetener.
- Two ounces is about 4 tablespoons of butter. If you are after a richer taste, add more butter.
- Feel free to add less lemon juice, then taste it and add more only if you like.
- The sauce will thicken in the fridge. If you would like to serve it hot and have a thicker consistency, add about a teaspoon of cornstarch mixed with 1 teaspoon of water to the sauce and cook for a further 2 minutes or until it has thickened. Add more if still too thin.
